MEETING RECAP
Taking Stock of the Supreme Court and the Constitution
By Donn IrwinEdited By Horn, Gregory S.Monday, October 12, 2026
The Lakewood Rotary Key for October 9, 2026
The following informational paragraph has absolutely nothing to do with law and the Constitution; however, if you have Scandinavian blood in you it might be interesting.
Leif Erikson Day, celebrated on October 9th, is an annual observance honoring the Norse explorer credited as the first European known to set foot on North American soil around the year 1000. It celebrates both his voyage across the Atlantic and the contributions of Nordic-American communities, whose traditions, industry, and civic spirit have enriched the nation. The date was chosen to mark the 1825 arrival of the Restauration in New York Harbor, carrying early Norwegian immigrants, and was first officially recognized in the United States through a 1935 presidential proclamation, later established as an annual event by a 1964 joint resolution of Congress.
Now that we have that bit of information safely tucked away in our non – AI assisted brains we can move on to what happened at our meeting:
President Barlow Buescher (PBB) called the meeting to order and immediately called upon Philip Lindholm to give us a “Thought for the Day”. Philip dutifully fulfilled his assignment. (This writer is wondering if, on Fridays, we are allowed to have more than one thought…...).
Joe Quinn Esq., led us in the Pledge.
Wendy McGowan luckily had no Sunshine.
