O.V. #16 RC of Melrose 8-3-10

Very nice drive from ROS to Melrose.  The power generating windmills were a site (especially when driving home at night to see all of the blinking lights).  This town is like a little oasis on the plains.  They meet in the high school board room, very comfortable venue.  The catering, home made steak strips and fixings, terrific.  President Alan is a very friendly and sincere person as well as his whole club very welcoming.  I felt at home here in that my first club in Australia was a night club similar to this one.  Really quality membership and room to grow.  I think they had one of the highest per capita attendance percentages for a club attending the District Convention this past year.  I also got to meet a Hall of Fame Cowboy (see pic below).
