"The oldest continuously operating club in the world south of the Tropic of Cancer"
Fellow Rotarians,
Please remember that next Tuesday August 11 we will be honored by the visit of GD Mercedes Peguero Moronta. It is important to have a large turnout in order to show that, in spite of the many difficulties that we have all faced in recent years resulting in a declining membership, we are still a vibrant, relevant club with great friendship and many wonderful projects and accomplishments.
I hope everyone will clear the schedule in order to be at the meeting which will on ZOOM at our usual time of 12:15 PM.
My thanks to everybody,
Frank
Jolee Martin has had 30 years of progressive experience in operational excellence ranging from Logistic Site Management to Interim Director of Operations for Diamond Comics Distribution. Jolee's ability to build results is a strength she brings not only to her work but to her community. Her talk centered around why, as President, she brought Multi Axis Mfg. to Orocovis and, moving forward, bringing high end manufacturing and sustainable solar solutions to Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. Our speaker's talk generated a lively question and answer period. Jolee welcomes calls to her personally at her cell number: 636-288-8756.
We are looking for volunteers to help identify areas that need covid/masks and food. And also volunteers to help distribute these. The masks are not for individuals, they are for institutions. The food is for needy families. There is a very short lead time for this to occur so if you can help please contact Gerry Cumpiano @ Gcumpiano@gmail.com or call him.
In her presentation Attorney Calero she cover macro events from 2000 to the present, including investment, consumption, employment and unemployment tendencies. The challenges we face in these time, as well as the delays in recuperation funds will also be covered. But I think most of us will be most interested in Covid 19 impact, and the executive orders and their impact on consumer patterns, and their short term impact.
