LAST WEEK: Kari Brown, Club Tech 
Kari introduced the newer members (and a few of the older ones) to ClubRunner. CR was designed by Rotarians for Rotarians. CR is the platform that runs our website, rotaryclubhr.org, manages membership, plans events, shares our stories, and a few things we haven't discovered yet. It also links with Rotary Inter-national. You can access CR through a mobile app, our website, and member area on our website. Kari shared how to access and install the mobile app and several of its capabilities. Please contact Kari for help or questions.
    
 
We again welcomed Phil Horning, and, this time, he took a membership packet! We also welcomed Laura Schultz, guest of Eric.
 
Congratulations to Terre Cone as she personally received her blue badge from her husband and mentor.
