Our Ebell luncheon this past Wednesday, April 17 was our very own member, Leon Nixon. He is an award-winning audiobook narrator, a director, filmmaker, and playwright. He retired as a police captain after 30 years of public service. Leon has been a Rotarian since 2012 and served as Club President of the Rotary Club of San Pedro. After retiring, he transferred club to join our Wilshire Rotary Club in. He has a Juris Doctor and a bachelor's degree in business administration. Therefore, his talk about making a career pivot was very interesting. Thank you, Leon, for sharing your journey with us.
Several members were recognized with new or next level Paul Harris pins. Wendy Clifford presented the recognitions and thanked these members for their generous contributions to Rotary.
Next Wednesday, April 24, we will have our monthly fellowship at the Escape Hotel in Hollywood. It's a very fun and unique venue for you to share with your fellow club members.
