Breakfast March 23rd Legion
GUEST SPEAKER
Dale introduced Becky Stewart to continue her GSE exchange in India.
She never knew what was happening and learned to go with the flow.
Though treated well, she noticed the absence of women at the Rotary events. The trip was a turning
point to becoming a Rotarian and her biggest challenge is for her and Trish to find enough buyers for
breakfast and wine and beer tickets. Jeff thanked Becky and John closed the meeting with the 4 way test.
