Dasha shared that Jeff lost a bet with their former neighbors. Jim Ellison was fined for an old picture shared on Facebook. The picture was of Jim and his wife, Joan with members of the Rotary Club of Thailand. Betsy Halvorsen was called on yet again at this meeting. This time Betsy was fined for the video she shared with the return of the Viennetta dessert. Tim Moag was fined with his knowledge of the Payroll Protection Plan and how that will affect him as he works through “taxaseason.”aPresident Mary Margaret returned to her information she gained from Facebook to fine Mary Young. Mary was fined for a picture from Christmas of herself, her husband, and daughter, Abby. Mary talked about how it was a very small group for Christmas this year which was different but good. Mary also shared a very cute video of her grandbaby and already being a Buffalo Bill’s fan. Jim Ellison then spoke about some of the early survey results from the strategic plan. He stated 38 people had completed the survey so far this year. It is helpful for the strategic plan committee to gather this information to continue to move the club forward.
