THIS WEEK:  S.J. Light, Water Crisis in Colorado and Pete & Jennie Grondorf GTKY Talk
 
Greeter(s):  Mike Foss
Inspiration:  Shrin Murthy
50/50 Winner:  Jennie Grondorf
 
LAST WEEK:  Edward Moss, Family and Criminal Law and Victor Burdick, GTKY Talk
Eric introduced Judge Moss whose bio is too impressive and long to share. What we did glean from Judge Moss's Criminal Sentencing Exercise was the challenges faced by a judge sitting at the bench as they hear the cases presented. It was an informative, intriguing presentation that I can't begin to do justice to in this format. In addition, Judge Moss is a former mayor of Westminster and a current member of their Rotary Club. Tom and Judge Moss exchanged Club flags.
       
 
We all enjoyed getting to know Victor and his successful journey to Colorado. 
 
We again welcomed Shelley Falk, Rotary Club of Corozal President; Shelley thanked our members for their recent trip and support for Hope to Walk in Belize. They are now working on a prothesis for above the knee amputations.
Thank you, Bill Medlicott, for joining us again to distribute the Rotary shopping bags.
 
Elaine proudly introduced Mike O'Brien our newest inductee who was accompanied by his wife Jessie and their newborn daughter. Mike was sponsored by Steve Miller and mentored by Bill Simmermon.
                   
                   
 
Congratulations Brian Frevert as he received his blue badge from his mentor Scott while his sponsors Bob Larson and Ron Lester proudly looked on.
 
 
Scott introduced our current student, Miles Ruben from Rock Canyon H.S. He was accompanied by his parents, Advisor and a teacher. Miles is active supporting his peers via the Lone Tree Youth Board and Commision as well as obtaining his pilot license. Each student honored have been phenomenal and amazing! 
 
Shrin opened the floor for additional nominations for Claudia's 1-year term on the Board of Directors beginning Jul 1st. No nominations were offered. Chip Hartney remains the only candidate; nominations open another week.
 
This week Bob will auction a stacked swing ring from Nancy's father.
