Mr. Caruso, a Rotarian from Troy, MI, provided a great keynote message to those in attendance.  He talked about how to make an impact on those around you through such things as the proper handshake and the most important words that resonate with whoever you might be talking to.  As a Rotarian, Michael also crafted part of his message specifically to Rotary clubs, talking about how more members can be attracted and "closed" as well as how to further publicize clubs and events.  Even as impressive as his message was the turnout that came to see him speak...52 Prior Lake Rotarians, 9 visiting Rotarians and 66 guests!  This was a great way to show what our Rotary club can do, and we are very thankful for Michael for joining us and giving us even more of a reason to show off the club!
