September 20, 2016 - Theme "September Song"


Lynne
"Oh, it's a long, long while
From May to December
But the days grow short,
When you reach September.
When the autumn weather
Turn leaves to flame
One hasn't got time
For the waiting game."
"September Song" - Songwriters: Kurt Weill / Maxwell AndersonSeptember Song lyrics © T.R.O. Inc.


Lynne was the Toastmaster for the day and gets us started with our September Song themed meeting!
