2019 Speakers
This year the goal is to have two speakers per month. They will be invited to join us on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month during our regularly scheduled meeting at Pairings Bistro in Bel Air. The board will supply one speaker each month and our ask is that each Rotarian invite a speaker as well. Topics can be anything educational, empowering or enlightening. If you have a speaker in mind please email: gmeggin99@gmail.com
