Our speaker for this month’s club meeting will be Rabbi Samuel L. Spector, who will address us about the Jewish experience in Salt Lake City and Utah and how the current affairs in the world are affecting his congregation. He has been the rabbi of Congregation Kol Ami since 2018. He attended the University of California, San Diego, graduated with Cum Laude honors with a B.A. in Judaic Studies and was elected Phi Beta Kappa. He received his Masters in Hebrew Letters and Rabbinic Ordination from the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Los Angeles. He is currently a member of the Central Conference of American Rabbis, and serves on the advisory board for the Salt Lake Chamber and the Christian Center of Park City.
Rabbi Spector is married to Jill, an ldaho native; they are proud parents of their daughters, Miriam and Esti, and host parents of Yasamin, a high school student from Afghanistan.
We look forward to enjoying a fine evening together, and hearing from Rabbi Spector on this occasion.

We’re delighted to have Richard G. Hinckley, one of our own club members, speak to us on Thursday, January 25th at 6:00 pm at the Alta Club. He will speak to us about Church hosting and people he has entertained during his rich experiences in church service.
On Thursday, November 30th, Dr. Vivek Srikumar will enlighten our understanding of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI is a machine’s ability to perform the cognitive functions we associate with human minds, such as perceiving, reasoning, learning, interacting with an environment, problem solving, and even exercising creativity. Because of the power of AI and the changes it will bring, it’s crucial that we get a grasp of what it is and is not. Dr. Srikumar is an associate professor in the Kahlert School of Computing at the University of Utah. He co-leads the Utah Natural Language Processing Group and has dedicated research of AI.

This will be our last meeting for the 2022/2023 season — the time when we always look forward to welcoming spouses or another guest to join us for dinner and a musical program. We have invited a fantastic trombone trio to entertain us. If you have ever heard the Canadian Brass or the Empire Brass, you will know how rich this brass ensemble music can be. Please join us for a wonderful musical conclusion to our Timpanogos Club year.
At our next club meeting, on Thursday April 27th, it will be our privilege to hear from one of our club members, Hardin Eyring.

We are eager to hear his message for us, and as always, we look forward to our wonderful association with one another as club members.
We will be fortunate to have Natalie Gochnour speak to us. Natalie serves as an associate dean in the David Eccles School of Business at the University of Utah and director of the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute. She is a native Utahn and westerner, who loves our rugged mountains and expansive red rock, along with the opportunity of having grown up skiing and hiking in the Wasatch Mountains, backpacking in the Uinta Mountains, and camping or hiking anywhere on the Colorado Plateau.
Our speaker in February will be Dr. Keith N. Finlayson — one of our club members. Keith is a well-known photographer, whose spectacular photography is often featured on local TV news broadcasts.
