The Rotary luncheon was held at the Provo Downtown Marriott Hotel. President Steve Tolley conducted the meeting. Doris Bullock played dinner music and accompanied the singing of the Anthem and Pledge.  Dan Ellertson offered an invocation.
President Steve Tolley announced the annual Provo Rotary Charity Golf Tournament, called the Rotary Festival Classic which will be held Monday, June 20, 2010 at Riverside Country Club. This is the club's annual fund-raising event for charity. The lunch that day will replace the regular Thursday lunch for that week. Please put this on your calendar and think of a business who can help sponsor this event.

Andy Anderson served as sergeant raising some money for the club's charitable foundation.

Don Jarvis introduced today's speaker, Dr. Ned Hill, a retired BYU professor and former dean of the Marriott School of Business, who chaired a committee which developed guidelines for development and preservation of Provo's natural resource treasures for the coming twenty years through the year 2030. It gives long-term vision for protecting the environment we value in and around Provo. He gave some general information about what this committee has done and directed those interested to view details by Googling Provo Vision 2030. He fielded questions from the group about several topics among which were  development of the lake, a bridge across the lake and expansion of the Provo airport.
