| The Four-Way Test:
In everything that we think, say or do:
Is it the TRUTH?
Is it FAIR to all concerned?
Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

As our term comes to an end, I would like to thank my assistant, Elaine Pityer, for assembling the newsletter each week. It would not have been
e-mailed without her...Thank you, Elaine. Also, thank you to all the reporters and photographers.
Good luck to the new officers and committees as a new year begins for the Decatur Rotary Club.

Following a toast offered by President C. J., President Jason spoke to the Club about what Decatur Rotary Club means to him and of his vision and goals for the coming year.


Entertainment.....
Linda Morris introduced legendary Atlanta Performers Banks & Shane -- Banks Burgess, Paul Shane, and Jim Durand -- who have been making music together since 1972.


Their set featured songs in tribute to the Kingston Trio, including The Tijuana Jail, One More Town, Everglades, A Worried Man, and M.T.A. They concluded with Woody Guthrie's This Land is Your Land and Club members sang along.

The meeting was adjourned.
