Newport Rotarians enjoyed light fare during the Monday, August 4, 2014 Rotary Meeting at the Newport Rotary Building. The group, equally comprised of newer and "more seasoned" Rotarians fielded a series of "Name that Rotarian" questions. Surprisingly, the newer Rotarians won out, guessing a majority of the selections from clues given. The notable Rotarians were US President Warren G. Harding, Marconi,-the inventor of "the wireless", J.C. Hall- founder of Hallmark Cards, Sam Walton of WalMart fame, Duke Kahanamoku- the Father of Surfing", Col. Sanders of KFC, Wilbur Wright of the Wright Brothers, Dr. Norman Vincent Peele, Boxer Manny Pacquiao, and Designer Emilio Pucci. The program concluded with a modern day summation of The Object of Rotary authored by PDG Jim Henry, a key commentator on Rotary trends, in his most recent blog article at Retention Central.
