President Wayne Hodges opened the virtual meeting with the Pledge of Allegiance, then we recited the modified Four Way Test.  The invocation was given by Jay Eastman, discussing a letter to Winston Churchill from his brother.  Specifically, the letter discussed our great nation's ability to come together, even with our incredibly diverse cultural and philosophical backgrounds, we will prevail.  Virtual lunch was served.
 
ATTENDANCE

There were 42 Rotarians present, and three guests:  Jason, Yolanda Udel, and Jennifer Lundy.
