Linda Ding rang the virtual bell followed by the playing of a borrowed version of O Canada Then a poetic invocation was delivered by Dave Anderson: "The Rotary Club of Tsawwassen Meets now on the Internet We've been missing our morning breakfasts But we haven't had a complaint yet Look at all our tiny faces Lined up on the computer screen Leslie refuses to mute herself She thinks she's a movie star queen Most of us don't know what we're doing Most of us are out of our league Its hard to tell who's talking And we've all got Zoom fatigue We had to cancel our primary fundraiser The carts did not roll down the hill The parade is gone, the Terry Foxers won't run Lets pray for the end of the chill There's no more shaking of hands or hugging The days of meeting in person are gone Committee meetings are now at a distance But the work of Rotary lives on So remember all good-hearted Rotarians In Tsawwassen we have blessings to share Our neighbours are both near and distant Let's work together to show them we care" Visiting Rotarians Darcy Long and Tanya Hall (Sechelt- Sunshine Coast) Guests: Kamiil Kanji (Dave Hamilton) Ron Beaton (Kathleen Beaton) Special Occasions: Birthdays: Past President Gail (July 25) Blake Cowan (July 27) Anniversaries: Margaret and Ian Bourhill (July 25) Barb and Wayne Connnorton (July 29) Community Peace Builder Award Jill Moore We have three nominees for the award so far and inviting more.
