Past president Bruce Smith stood in for Brad Mettam, who was
out of town. Menu was veal or spaghetti, the usual salad bar, and chocolate
mousse for dessert.
Ted Loring was
awarded Rotarian of the Week. He wasn’t there
to accept the award. Klark Swan reminded us that Rotary’s Mardi
Gras fundraiser will be held on March 16th at the Redwood Conference
Center. She would like to have everyone let her know if they are attending so
she can get an idea of how much food to get. There’s a Rotary District Conference
happening in Reno May 7-19th. They are calling it The Four Way Fest”
Very clever.
Our presenter was Scott
Adair, new director of Economic development for Humboldt County. He looks to expand local businesses by
connecting them to sources of funding like the Headwaters Fund. He’s also looking to bring new industries to
the county. He mentioned the new fish farm
planned for Samoa. They have a theme
Prosperity 2018 and are poised for growth.
They organized a trip to a trade show for 21 local businesses which was
very successful. He’s been on the job four
months, and his last position was in Salt Lake City Utah.
