Cinco de Mayo Edition
THE LAKEWOOD KEY
Lakewood Rotarians gathered on the 5th of May for our usual meeting of the minds. President Whalen was absent as he is off representing the fair city of Lakewood in Korea. Rumor has it Bill Potter has started a pool on how many times the mayor will go shirtless in Korea (the over/under is four for anyone who wants a piece of the action. It’s worth noting that the over/under for the number of times Mayor Whalen’s Korean hosts will be befuddled by his terrible puns is 27 but that is just for the first day).
Did you know? While Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a commemoration of Mexican culture and heritage in the United States, it is a minor holiday in New Mexico.
Former president Mark Edgecomb wielded the hammer for today’s meeting and (spoiler alert) managed to keep his shirt on for the entire meeting. He rang the bell so many times, your scribe was expecting someone to shout “Let’s get ready to rumble!” Alas there was no featured bout today.
