LMR Membership Campaign

 
Membership in LMR is by invitation. I'm sure we all know some folks with great personalities that we'd love to work with.
Since we launched our Membership campaign in October, members have brought 111 Non-Rotarian guests have visited our meetings, 7 of which are now members. And, on March 31, 2016 we are inducting 3 more.
Keep up the great work. Don't forget, in April members who have brought the most guests will be served ice cream by the losers that brought the fewest.
