The Beginnings - Following a cocktail reception that was enjoyed by all Co-President Ayham opened the meeting by inviting everyone to recite the Pledge of Allegiance after which Danny led us in "America the Beautiful." Ayham warmly welcomed our many guests and Mary read the Invocation. Co -President Ed then introduced our speaker, Kelly Springer. Kelly is the founder and CEO of "Kelly's Choice" which is a nutritional consulting company. Kelly designed the menu we enjoyed. Dinner service began and Kelly told us of the special and very healthy ingredient in our salad........black walnuts! Who knew? The main course included a loin pork roast which Kelly told us was a healthy and low-fat protein. Kelly talked about changing diet habits by swapping out ingredients for healthier alternatives (think spices instead of the traditional salt, pepper, butter and gravy), the effect of omega three fats and much more. In addition to our salad, dinner incorporated brussel sprouts, squash, beans and farro, all great sources of fiber and other nutrients. Dinner ended with a sweet treat; brownies topped by black walnuts. The brownies were made with black beans! It was a delicious and informative meal. Kelly did not disappoint in showing us that health eating can be fun and delicious! Club Business - Jay talked about the service aspect of our club. The "Sleep in Heavenly Peace" bed build project is October 23rd. The club was one of the organizers of the "Duck Dash." Bill B talked about the Rotary Foundation and let us know that a letter about Foundation Giving would soon be sent to club members. We are hopeful that all will participate. And the "Happy Dollar" tray was passed with all proceeds to be designated for Polio Plus. Closing - Ed closed the meeting by expressing an invitation to our guests to consider joining our club, thanking everyone and of course, the Four Way Test. |
