This Week's Meeting
Dec 12 Dr. Tom Demarco has completed several long distance bicycle trips throughout the world. Many will recall his very interesting write-up in the Pique NewsMagazine. Tom will share his story about his road biking adventures & car free travel. It will be a very interesting presentation.
In addition we will have a short presentation by a very special guest: Shafii Haji (Gasica). Gascia leveraged the power of Rotary to establish a school in Zanzibar. Through Rotary's efforts the school the school established by Gascia was doubled in size. In addition other schools were set-up and arrangements were made to sponsor 3 students to attend school in the US.. A compelling story indeed.
It will be a great meeting. See you there.
