Lakewood Rotary Infrastructure aka Club Assembly
By Donn IrwinEdited By Horn, Gregory S.Sunday, April 13, 2025
Assembly – a legislative body, a gathering, a collection of parts, a school gathering, computer programing, a job (act of producing components by assembling parts).
Examples: A group of people gathering for social or political purposes. A group of people gathering for worship or entertainment. A group of people gathering to make laws.
Synonyms of “assemble” include collect, congregate and gather.
Don’t you just love the English language?! One word and all of those possible outcomes from “assemble”.
I’m sure that a few of the scribes on the Bulletin writing team could wax eloquently about the various nuisances of the word (thinking Magnuson and Saalfeld here) but I have to look at the use of “Club Assembly” in the announcement email this week and wonder: what clubs are we assembling….
(Again, you gotta love the English language).
It all began with that noise we heard before the actual meeting commences. Some call it “walk up music”. Others call it “what the #*&%!!# is that”. While others just ignore it.
