With this meeting being a fellowship meeting, President Michelle took the opportunity to have members spend some of the time as a "working" meeting. She asked each table to discuss and provide ideas on ways to bring in new members as well as how to better diversify the club as far as ethnicity and gender.

Ron received a round of applause from the members to thank him for his hard work and the delicious meals he creates for us each and every week.
