Last Week's Meeting
President Holly conducted another virtual Rotary meeting, this week from the Virginia Tech campus (well that’s what it looked like on my computer)!
Thursday was National Antique Day - Holly sent a special shout out to Susie Earl.
Susie appreciates any recognition! She wanted us all to acknowledge the Hallagans for there service above self efforts in the production of masks for the area hospitals. Our board donated $3,000 to Hallagans for face masks. Jean Bendix announced that the project will continue for at least 3 more weeks. There are 95 sewers following a diagram posted by Ann Rogers.
The Bob Goodman blood drive has been rescheduled for June 24th.
Club Announcements/Happy Moments
John Zornow talked to Charlie Hallagan(TV star on the Ashton Place ad). Charlie said that making the masks was not the first time that Hallagan mfg has stepped up to the plate to help our country. In the last World War they made sleeping bags for the troops.
Note from John: It's a small world. John Zornow, a driver for the Hallagan Healthcare effort, transported another shipment of face masks on Thursday for
sewing by volunteers in the Clifton Park area. As per usual he met a
another volunteer driver at exit 34 of the thruway who took it from
there. The driver was Clifton Park resident Ken Hannan, brother of Dave.
Jean Bendix has been seen meeting Ramon in the Wegman’s parking lot.
