Meeting Notes Outline
Our Greeter today was Geoff Legg, and he did a great job. President Dan Crane rang the bell at 7:30 a.m. We sang the National Anthem, and we said the Pledge of Allegiance to the U.S. Flag. Then Jeff Kistler gave a very nice invocation.
President Dan reminded us of the word from the country………..
“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.” Benjamin Franklin
