CPA Dave Miller presented his one minute Blue Badge Update.  Thanks Dave!!!

Rhea Dawn Smith introduced our student speaker Kyle Hatcher, a sophomore at Olentangy Orange.  Kyle was our Club's representative to the Ohio Business Week summer camp program where he had the opportunity to walk in the shoes of a business person. His description of his team's I-Chef project was both interesting and entertaining.  Congratulations Kyle.

Jackie Kuhns introduced David Nunley, our club's nominee for the Group Study Exchange trip to Argentina, who presented highlights of his GSE trip to Argentina. David, an employee of the Delaware General Health District described his adventure which included a 23 hr flight, 1300 miles by bus and 25 presentations to 35 clubs across Argentina.  Cordoba was their home base which is the home of Che' Guevara as well as both, the largest soccer ball factory and candy distributor in the world.  GSE is supported by Rotary Intl through our contributions to The Rotary Foundation.

Our club was extremely well represented by Kyle and David.
