    Jan. 20 is the date for a meet and greet at the Killingworth Library to help launch a new Rotary Club (Haddam Killingworth) from 6-8pm.

Program:
There was no program so a discussion of the Wine Tasting ensued. Gerri went over the vendor lists and who was responsible for contacting them. There is a short time left and its time to put on the full court press! Sell tickets, get sponsors and donated items for silent auction. Marty & Gerri are co-chairs of the event.
