This week we will have Steve Altobello from Shilling Construction. Steve is one of the owners and the CFO of Shilling Construction. This will be a great meeting to learn about some of what is going on in Manhattan and all you ever wanted to know about paving roads.
 
Also, on Friday, September 4th, there will not be a meeting so we can celebrate Labor Day.
 
Meet Our Greeter
This weeks Greeter is Dirk Daveline. Dirk is a founding member of our club and the CFO of Steel and Pipe Supply. Be sure to come by and say hi to Dirk this week.
Rotary International President-Elect
Larry Lunsford on September 11th
 
Larry Lunsford is the President-Elect for Rotary International. Next year, he will be the leader of all 1.2 million Rotarians around the globe. This is a rare and special opportunity, and maybe the only time an RI president is at our club. I hope we have a great turnout.
