RON SWARNER: ROOFTOP VIEW >>>
Tacoma Rotary 8 moved its Thursday noon meeting inside the Landmark Convention Center to said building's rooftop today to take in all that is Tall Ships Tacoma. Rotary 8 members, visiting Rotarians and many guests mingled about smartly an hour before the meeting waiting for the Tall Ships.
And waited and waited and waited.
We could see the Tall Ships very small in the distance. However new Pres. Jeff Rounce called everyone inside the rooftop conference room for the noon meeting.
After the adjournment bell, we scurried back outside to find â€" Tall Ships.
I snapped a few shots, including the party on top of the Sky Terrace condos down the street, before heading back to work.
With a cash bar, and the rooftop reserved all afternoon, I bet many Rotarians are still there.
