It was Rotary JeoPARODY with our host Andy Trebek! We watched as two teams battled it out for the coveted title of Rotary JeoPARODY champions!
We had Team #1 and Team A...there are no number 2's or B teams in our Rotary Club, only A1's!
Yes we laughed, we cried, and we learned a lot about Rotary and our fellow Rotarians!
Team #1 was captain John Wettstein and Kelly Krieg-Sigman, Marv Ramsay, Angela Czerwinski, Jeff Odom and Rebeca Reichelt. Team A was captain Mary Ann Gschwind, Wendy Franke, Jamie Cappuzzi, Scott Horne, Petra Roter and Dave Johnston.
The categories were: My Fellow Rotarians; Geography, Brazil, Significant Moments in Rotary, History, Pot Pouri and the FINAL JeoParody question was: In this Month and Year, Lyn became our club administrator. PowerPoint with categories, statements and answers...view here.
Team #1 were our champions...it was a team effort led by Rebeca and Angela who both were quick with their answers.
The club recognized Lyn, their administrator for her 15 years of service with a basket of flowers.
Members said it was "the most fun and entertaining Rotary meeting they have ever been at....Kudos to those who planned this meeting....so fun....thanks to those that planned this meeting." So thanks go out to Andy Bakkum, Sarah Arendt-Beyer and Ryan Geister for all their time and talent they put into this meeting. Thanks to the Team #1 and Team A participants.
