Dear BBRC Friends,
 
Many thanks to everyone that participated in our first in-person BBRC meeting since “going remote” in March!  We had more than 30 members at the Broken Yolk, and nine via ZOOM…WOW!  Everything went off without a hitch, thanks largely to Kathy Berry and her team.  Even City Councilmember Gonzales commented on everyone’s commitment to following health guidelines and being respectful of everyone’s “space.” Way to go!
 
Our next meeting, June 10, will be held back at the Petroleum Club!  Let’s please continue with the care we used last week, keeping our distance and avoiding hugs and handshakes.  The P-Club has worked with the health department to plan for appropriate seating and serving practices.  We’ll have individually plated meals (no buffet), and we’ll have fewer members at each table.  But we will be together!  Yay!
 
If you aren’t ready (or able) to join us in person, we’ll again have a ZOOM option.  Some of you attending the meeting in person might like to bring your laptop and set it up on your table.  If you sign into the Zoom version of the meeting, then our off-site-Zoomers can see the same view you see--and you can even convey verbally some of the questions our members ask in the ZOOM chat room.  (Now that’s teamwork!)
 
I hope to see most of you at the next meeting.  Just two more regular meetings of the Rotary year…let’s finish strong!
 
In Rotary Service & Friendship,
 
Cheryl
