President’s Minute and Announcements
President Quartaro named her People of the Week: everyone involved with organizing and running the Progressive Dinner. 
 
She then read a letter from Rochester Regional Health thanking our club for our recent donation.
 
President Quartaro presented Ralph Miller with a check from the club for the Kiddie Day Parade. 
 
She announced the club is applying for the Presidential Citation at this year’s convention.  We have reached most of our goals.  We are just over $4 per member short of reaching our goal for giving to the Foundation. (We reached that goal by the end of last week’s meeting.  Thank you for your donations!)
