Leanna Bordner led a fun, energetic and entertaining meeting Monday where club members were, in some cases, reminded of, and in other cases, learned new information about fellow club members.
The meeting, titled “Speed Dating,” was really all about networking and having conversation with one another. Six full tables participated in answering four categories of questions: (1) Early Life, (2) High School & College Life, (3) Professional Life and (4) Thoughtful Life. Club members answered questions from “Where were you born?” to “I’m happiest when…..”
The room was loud during the session and everyone participated. While the Club learned some little-known facts, of most value were the themes which emerged. Themes surrounding the importance of family and community, of giving back and making a difference...all reasons we are members of Bloomington Kiwanis.
