I decided that the best way to capture the essence of last night's Officer's Exchange Night was to do so in verse.  (check out all the photos from the event in the "photo album" tab above).  So here you go:
 
It’s the Rotary Party
Of which we all rave,
It was hosted by Cathy
And her husband Dave
We can’t miss Miss Cindy
For working with Picnic,
And Membership Dan
For our membership uptick
 
 
The cooking crew served us
Some crab legs and steak,
The dessert table featured
John Johnson’s wife’s cake
There was candy for Rod
Who goes out each week,
Delivering backpacks
‘Cross mountain and creek
 
 
The setting was perfect
With a tent to give shade,
Bring your ten bucks
If you haven’t yet paid
She gave out two more
To absentee guests,
They were Blood-Drive-Chair Tom
And Program-Chair Wes.
 
 
Our president doled out
Boxes of candy,
The first of which went
To fund-raiser Andy
There may have been others
That I may have missed,
I forgot to take notes
Or jot down a list.
 
 
Carlin got one for
His newsletter prose,
It’s not all that good,
But that’s how it goes
Thank you to Steph
For a job very well done,
And best wishes to Beth
For a new year of fun
 
 
There was one for Jim Kan
For getting our food,
For counting our money
She lauded Sara Darooge
Others might think that
We’re silly or strange,
But no club has a better
Officer’s Exchange!
 
 
Our Social Chair Dave
He’s such a good sport,
He’s also in charge of
Our make-ups report
 
 
 
Thanks to our hosts, Dave and Cathy Meyer, the food crew, the set-up crew, the clean-up crew, and everyone who contributed to such a fun night!
 
Respectfully submitted (or in this case, Regretfully Submitted)
