Let’s Review What Happened Last Week:
 
At our meeting last Wednesday We were joined by a visiting Rotarian from the Ukraine, Dr. Gordy Rybokhysky.  We exchanged Rotary flags and he gave us a brief presentation about his club and his city in the Ukraine - Lviv.  We were also joined by Emily Beach for her second "guest of the club" visit.  We presented new member Michael Brownrigg with his round badge.  With Michael joining and Karim Salma rejoining, this Rotary year our new members outnumber those who have left us - Burlingame Rotary is once again growing!
 
Our speaker was Nicole Warmerdam of Carr McClellan who continued our recent focus on what happens after you leave this earth as she spoke about wills and trusts.
