President Bill opened one of his remaining few meetings in fine fettle and turned it over to Rick Crane, who led us in the Pledge.

The Pledge, while always meaningful, took on higher status, elevated this week by the knowledge that Flag Day follows on the 14th.

Jim Williams then presented a creative and moving "Thought of the Day", euologising Ronald Reagan without speaking a word. The visuals Jim presented shall remain with us for a long, long time.

To tie the patriotic theme together and get us marching off to lunch ,our able throated songsters led us in "America The Beautiful" and "Smile" . Thanks to all of the gang: Messrs: Fulton, Wood, Blackburn, Young, Duncan, Ashcroft, Peloquin, and Ludwig (Piano).
