Publicity - the gift that keeps on giving

Publicity - the gift that keeps on giving. Just ask Wayne Hamburger about this article that appeared today in the North County Times.

The Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary recently welcomed computer consultant Wayne Hamburger as its newest member. Hamburger, a New York City native who graduated from MIT in 1976 with a degree in mathematics and computer science, owns Computer Software Consultants Inc. in Poway, which provides technical support and part-time IT department services to small businesses to help minimize overhead.

Teenage voices restore hope

Just came from a meeting of the Rancho Bernardo Sunrise Rotary where we were treated to a concert by the RB High School Madrigals - 32 of the most talented teenagers you're ever likely to encounter. They started the meeting with the national anthem - sure to perk you up regardless of your politics.
