Hello Fellow Rotarians! It is marvelous to be able to write this week’s Beacon for the incomparable Frank Wooldridge.
 
We were greeted by the beautiful pair of Stephanie Baker and Athena Collup. Dale Bender started us off with an appropriate-for-Rotary invocation. Yes, God, you are the hub of the wheel and we are the spokes. Bill Black led us in the saluting of the flag, and Songstress Carol Smith had us sing the Four Way Test.  Do any of you remember School House Rock on Saturday mornings? This is how I learned the preamble to the Constitution along with what are conjunctions. (You’re all signing “Conjunction Junction, what’s your function” aren’t you?) Singing the Four Way Test is a great way to commit it to memory!!
 
Visiting today is our Rotarian from another club, Chuck Canada, and member spouses Melody Spalinger and Jon Parnell.

Mobile ClubRunner Phone App
From Kay: If you want the contact information for all the BBRC members and more at your fingertips, download the ClubRunner app to your phone!
 
From ClubRunner Support: 
As our renovation efforts continue, our mobile app infrastructure was next on the list for updates. This update to our mobile backend systems also required changes in how the mobile app communicates with ClubRunner.

The latest update of the Mobile app includes infrastructure updates to improve performance and stability, in addition to various bug fixes. The new version of the ClubRunner app will be available later today in both the Apple App Store & Google Play.

You can continue to use the ClubRunner app without downloading its latest version until December 14th, 2020. After this date, older versions of the app will no longer be supported.

For assistance with app updates, please see each platform’s guides:

Any conflict within humanity should be considered as a family conflict. We must find a solution within this atmosphere.
