Geoff Davis – Happy he is going on vacation on Thursday and wearing an aloha shirt to commemorate. He pledged to donate $1 for every person that wears an Aloha style shirt to a meeting between May 1st and the end of this fiscal year. This could be a big fundraiser, so get your Hawaiian vibe on!

Dan is an excellent Rotarian, squeezing in valuable time to attend most meetings and volunteer where he can. He is incredibly busy with his dental practice, so we appreciate that he makes time for us. Her is very organized with a creative and fun spin on everything he gets involved with.

He also took on the organization of the golf tournament this past weekend and we can all agree that is a huge success!
