Rotarian, each one of us is responsible for our club’s growth. Each week I will post a couple of classifications that will maybe “jog a reminder” to you of someone you may like to invite to visit our club – some-one who would make a good Rotar-ian. Highlight classifications for this week are:

Building Materials - Retailing (Sales, Management or Owner) Lending - Real Estate Tire Store - Manager/Owner

If you know of someone in these fields, pick up the phone or visit them and extend the hand of friendship. with an invitation to our next meeting. Terri Stokes, Mem-
