A buffet of pizza, wings, and salad will be available to please your palate, we only ask that you pay for any libations (of which Pizza Boy Brewery has many to choose from). I strongly encourage your attendance at this meeting as I will be laying out what I like to call "The Bockis Blueprint" for my year serving as President for this wonderful Rotary Club!
