Note: The Sept. 13 meeting is also at the Cameron Park CSD (like last week).
Our speaker for this week canceled her planned appearance, so we will have lunch, fellowship and the usual events at our weekly meeting, and who knows, maybe a surprise speaker.
Kevin Kylie, our State Assembly representative for District 6, came to our Thursday meeting at the Cameron Park CSD to give us his annual update on what is happening in the State Assembly and in District 6. The recent session ended on Aug. 30th with many bills being submitted and passed right up to the midnight end of the session. Legislative activity was heavy in the issues of education, environment and public safety. One of Kevin's interests is in keeping taxes down. He helped successfully helped defeat attempts to raise taxes on water, cell phones and fireworks.
Dick Franks tried to sell old tickets and posters from the 2018 Wine at Town Center event.
He also announced that while he is on vacation the next two weeks, Bill Ettlich will be filling in on the Treasurer's position, including collecting payments from members. President Tiffany reminded members that the third Thursday of the month (for at least Sept., Oct., Nov.) is a breakfast meeting, at 7:30am at the Cameron Park Country Club. The next (and first) such meeting is coming up on Sept. 20th.
Guests & Visitors
Friend of Rotary, Sean Cox was in attendance.
Happy Bucks or Not So Happy Bucks:
Roger Hassler was $5 happy--for being retired and (supposedly) looking for work.
Bob Clarke was $10 happy -- This came from $5 happy that Art Cort filled in for Bob as greeter last week, and another $5 since he heard that Art hugged every woman.
President Tiffany was a total of $52 happy:
- $27 happy in honor of Jordan's recent 27th birthday,
- $20 = 4 x $5 happy for the weeks she was absent on her honeymoon vacation, and
- $5 happy for finally being able to use a replacement for our missing club bell.
