It was a cold but clear night as about 30 rotarians gathered at Wethersfield Country Club for an evening of socializing . Ceil checked us all in and distributed our meal tickets, Honey Glazed Salmon, Filet of Beef, or Chicken. As we mingled and greeted each other, many different conversations were heard : sports, weather, upcoming holiday plans and much more. There was a roving staff member taking drink orders, saving us a walk to the bar.  
 
At seven, Alex opened with the rotary song and the pledge and Guy gave a very nice invocation  Dinner was served and the room was quiet for a bit. From comments heard everyone enjoyed their choices. After coffee and dessert Alex opened the meeting formal part of the meeting with several announcements.
