John started us off with the pledge of allegiance, the 4-way test, and a quote from a Ghanaian diplomat.
Planning continues for the 2024 Mum a Thon road race. We can study how other races are organized by attending local races—this Saturday, September 7th, is the BBGC Color Run. If time permits, please visit.  We had a working meeting today, combing through possible sponsors for this year's run.  Members chose businesses they wanted to contact.  A list will be sent in a separate email  - updates can be sent to Laura, who will update the list. 
Please see the sponsor ask letter in the download link below.
Another learning opportunity is to watch the New Britain-Berlin Rotary Club Fun Run, Fitness walk on October 5, 2024 https://runsignup.com/Race/CT/NewBritain/NBBRotaryFunRun
 
2024 Liberty Bank Turkey Drive begins October 1 - November 18.  The foundation will donate $.25 for each dollar.  Funds will be collected for Zion Meals for Neighbors
