Ladies and Gentlemen –
 
We had very interesting speakers this morning – Greg Gracia, the Robotics instructor at Nipomo High School, and one of his students, Kim talked about the Robotics competitions with which they have been involved.  They also brought along and demonstrated two of the robots that have been very successful in competition.  These machines are designed, built, programmed, and operated by students.
 
Some other highlights include:
  1. Roger Ridley was recognized by the Club as well as Rotary International for recruiting two new members this Rotary year.
  2. Our next board meeting will be held at Socorro Simons’ house on January 22 at 5:30 PM.
  3. Watch for Golf Tournament meeting information in the next couple of weeks from Bill Pucciarelli.
