President's Comments
 
OH, WHAT A NIGHT!!!!! 😊 😊
Our best roll-up since pre-Covid of 42 wonderful people who were treated to lively fellowship with guests, truly great speakers, hearing from an OAM recipient plus very enjoyable hospitality. It was certainly a real pleasure to host such a Meeting - thank you everybody. 
 
 
Finally, it was terrific to see our very busy RCNB Members certainly being visible in the Community in the past couple of weeks. Let us encourage more of these important connections going forward and enjoy Opening Opportunities.
Have a very pleasant week 😊.
