It’s been a crazy couple of years. The players took an indefinite 7th inning stretch. It was we who ended up out on the field of hard hits. The mandates, shots, and division on the field ended in protest. It’s been two years since our lives have been put on hold. Our bat bags were crowded with social distancing, masks, gloves and hand sanitizer. Stay 6’ apart was stamped on the floors of local stores. Our daily routines consisted of virtual classrooms, zoom meetings and working from home. Social interaction STOPPED!
Do you know that a handshake is a powerful symbol of trust and equality? And what about the health benefits of a hug? It may help to reduce stress, protect against illness and a good squeeze may lead to decreased depression. But two years have gone by and we survived! It’s time to dust your bats off and let’s start hitting the ball back to normalcy.
The Board of Directors would like to continue to offer hybrid meetings at this time, but let’s hit a grand slam and shake the hand of a fellow Rotarian at Pybus Event Center. See you Thursday, masks or no masks it’s your choice.
