Our meeting began with a prayer and the pledge.  Dermot made an announcement about a Winter Clothing Drive.  They will be collecting until the end of March.   Items may be dropped off at his office in Bridgehampton, he's also collecting at Southampton Inn, during meetings.  Michael made an announcement about our Superbowl Pool  .  We have about 45 boxes left.  All $25 boxes will be converted to $50 boxes.  Please spread the word, we are collecting for our student scholarships and with ideas of adding a few, we need to really be aggressive in selling these boxes.  If you need any info, contact chair Paul Cassella.  Tom was the sargent.  Ed won the 50/50 but selecting the Jack of Hearts was not to be, so the journey to find the jack of hearts continues.  Tom dazzled the rotary faithful with some you might be a redneck jokes.  Then he teased us with history questions.  Mary was back answering questions.  Our program was Katherine Yamaguchi from Contractors for Kids.  She urged us to help her out on their social media channels to spread the word about their charity.  They have 2 upcoming fundraising events that i've saved below.  Contractors for Kids picks up the tab for unexpected expenses that occur for when people get sick.  It was great having Katherine join us and talk about all of the great charity work she's doing.
