Wally passed around index cards so we could write encouraging messages to the folks in Moore, Oklahoma. There is an optimist club in the tornado ravaged town. Wally has a contact name and will forward on these messages of support to that person.
We got a t-card from Stacy Goodwin of SMART.
Pin and Badge check, Dave got fined. Alan was the secret greeter and said everyone shook his hand except Eric and since he's not a paying member yet we couldn't fine him.
Road Cleanup: 6 folks showed up. No PAL Kids, there was a miscommunication. Alan mentioned they picked up 9 bags of trash, someone's drive shaft and many hub caps. Thank you to Tom for coordinating the event.
