Flag Day Flag Sales at Johnnies Supermarket Betsey and Mary her friend Mary Antworth 10 to 12 and Bill and Tom 12 to 2 (see Picture below at the time of the changing of the guard ). Sign up sheets will be out for Flag Day June 14 (Saturday) how about some new faces in my pictures.

Mike Road Race Report T-shirts ordered 13 sponsors (well done) Sunday June 1st. This is Labor Intensive for about two hours from 8:30 to 10:30 AM. Every one who can please sign up to help; sign up sheets will be at the next meeting.

Daveg reported on the Rotary Youth Exchange and what it entailed at the conclusion of his report Dave asks that we send out the letter printed in last week's Bulletin to families in Arlington whom we think would be interested in being Host Families. We will need at least two or better three Hosts. One family needs to sign and agreement so time is of the essence. If you know of any one who would be willing to participate please copy the email from last week's Bulletin and send it out to Arlington Families.

Bill introduced the GSE team, who proceeded to present a slide show presentation about themselves and Brazil. Very well done and informative. I learned that Brazil is a Republic with a Government divided into Executive, Legislative and Judiciary, much the same as ours, among many other interesting bits of information.
