Dear Sub-West Brothers & Sisters,
We had a full house this week and the room was filled with laughter! Someone commented to me that this is what Sub-West is supposed to feel like. Paul Sinor got us started with a Groaner about Roy Rogers. Roland Smith led us in Prayer, followed by Bob Stone with the Pledge to our Flag, and Bob Bothfeld with the 4-Way Test.
We are around $3200 for Polio Plus with two weeks to go. I found out it will take a few people to get me into the “outfit” and that my lovely wife is in on the deal. She won’t tell me what it is, but I’m hoping it’s a suit of armor. Mac Parker assures me the media will be present.
Happy Dollars were started by PDG Wayne Etheredge over his jubilation of the Tennessee score being accurate, but that the numbers were reversed. Andy Hinton piped in because Alabama was going to beat the entire NCAA and move on to beat the entire NFL. Ferd II shared news of his new Great Granddaughter with us. Jack Brown was happy Navy beat Air Force. Heidi Blair lost her husband John in Hawaii, but was happy when loud noises coming from a bar led her back to him. Admiral Bill Ramsey shared that Huntley Johnson was going to speak about WWII flying at the naval Aviation Museum. Bill Cleary was happy (along with the rest of us) that Jerold Hall was out of town (I may have the details a little wrong on this one). Brett Parra is happy to report his new building is under budget.
Jim Holifield introduced our Visitors and Guests. Visiting were Derek Stromas, a guest of mine. Visiting Rotarians included Roger Enzor from Downtown; Charles Howard and Richard Peterson from Pensacola North; and Tom Vaughn from Gulf Breeze.
We celebrated one Rotarian anniversary this week with Wendy Simon (2 years).
Patrice Whitten came forward to remind us of the good Rotary does in the world and that our EREY contributions are what make everything happen through Rotary International.
The Woolly Booger was Mark Smith with Wal-Mart trivia. All the answers seemed to be in the billions. A ruling had to be made on whether the Wooly should be fined for shameless advertising of his business and Woolly Booger Guru, and final authority, Andy Hinton said he was exempt. Look out next week Mark…
Jim Holifield had the winning raffle ticket and drew the Ace of Hearts from a deck with only 41 cards left to miss out on a $509 pot.
The program was Deborah Dunlap with a presentation of historic photographs from Pensacola history. What a great history our beautiful city has.
Next week our program is Capt. Robert Turpin from the Escambia Marine Resources Division.
Be blessed or be a blessing,
Rick
