Clark Merkley introduces speaker Susy Broadbent

Clark Merkley introduced Susy Broadbent, Marketing and Public Relations Director for The Loveland Living Planet Aquarium in Draper.  Susy reviewed for us the history of the Aquarium from it's small beginnings at the Gateway in Salt Lake City to its recent opening in Draper.  The motto of the Aquarium is to "Explore, Study, Learn".  The new facility just West of I-15 in Draper opened March 25th and has been a huge success with attendance far exceeding expectations.  The new facility is truly amazing and features a 300,000 gallon shark tank.

Our speaker this week was Sven Wilson, professor and chair of the Political Science Department at BYU.  Sven is also the visionary and founder of the Character First movement as highlighted on the Doug Wright show on KSL radio . For this week's meeting,  Sven focused his thoughts on rejecting the populist movement circulating in today's politics and spoke about the necessity of a strong leader who shows compassion and isn't afraid to admit when he or she is wrong. Just another way to keep politics civil and promote goodwill in all aspects of life.
