The initial fundraising estimate is just over $5,200, half of which we will donate to Habitat for Humanity. Many thanks to Carla for her huge efforts organizing the whole event; Chris Verrill, for offering Theatrikos' amazing space, talent, and resources for Rotary's benefit; and all Rotarians who sold tickets and who volunteered to help at the event!

Wrap up and Rotary announcements
Split the pot - Carla's ticket got drawn. As she had left before the end of the meeting, Laura drew from the deck on Carla's behalf but the joker remained elusive. The jackpot grows...
The meeting was adjourned after the recitation of the Four-Way Test.
