This week I had the pleasure of running the meeting for President Thea. As expected, many Rotarians showed up to hear fellow member Kamran Afshar give us his update on the economy and the question that's on our minds: Is a recession on the horizon?  After presenting facts and historical data, Kamran showed us similarities between 2007 and today. But, 2019 finds us in a stronger position and other factors such as a tight labor market and tariffs will influence what happens. Kamran concluded that we will eventually see a slowdown.  The question remains-when?
 
Rotarian Kamran Afshar talks about the economy.
 
We also heard from BAVTS student Yamilet Ferrufino. A Liberty High School student, she talked about her Cross Country running experiences and how she discovered the BAVTS Health Careers Program.
 
Liberty HS student Yamilet Ferrufino shares her BAVTS experiences.
 
Taste & Tunes is only 2 weeks away! Be sure to register and contact Maria Esposito if you have raffle prizes. Remember, the greater the success of this event, the more "financial muscle" we build to support community groups needing our help!
 
And please join us at our monthly Drop-Kick meeting, on Thursday at 5:30pm.
 
Next week our Program is Pediatric Cancer Impact on the Lehigh Valley.
 
 
Yours in Rotary service,
 
President-Elect Pete Mikolay
