SPEAKER:
D.G. AREA REP. RANDY KERMAN spoke to us on a meeting that he attended on behalf of our club, on the ins and outs of getting Rotary District and International Grants. It is all very complicated, I’m glad he went to that meeting because he is the only one in our club that could understand it all. (Actually he said it is much easer and less complicated than before.) Much discussion followed, and it is now as clear as mud but still clearer than it was.
