As the following photos show Isaiah had a great time in Wakayama, Japan!  Unfortunately the rest of his photos are on his cell phone which is at the bottom of a river in Japan.  That was some river rafting trip!  Isaiah visited the Club and brought his parents, Justin and Priscilla and brother, Daniel.  With his trip behind him he can now concentrate on beginning his studies at Sierra Community College.

At the same meeting we had the pleasure of hearing from author Kris Calvin.  Her first novel One Murder More is racing up the best sellers list.  She has just won the 2016 Silver Falchion Award for best first novel, best political thriller, and best female detective/sleuth.  Congratulations, Kris and welcome home Isaiah!
