Message from the President

I am so excited to introduce my signature project to you all in our July 14th lunch meeting. I am very passionate about this project, and I hope you will feel the same. In addition to engaging our members, I also wanted to encourage you to volunteer alongside family and friends. Rotary International promotes programs that focus on family, friends and the community at large called “The Family of Rotary”. My 3-year signature project embodies this spirit and will help us make an even greater impact in our community through the potential for increased volunteer participation. The best part is you can volunteer on your own with fellow Rotarians, or bring your spouses, significant other, children, and grandchildren as we come together to Unite For Good. 

  

This promises to be a fun and informative meeting, and I hope you will carve out the time in your busy calendars to attend. 

  

As a reminder, please nominate fellow Rotarians who deserve a sincere thank you for their dedication, whether they've consistently shown up, lent a hand, or gone above and beyond. Simply send their name and a brief description of why you are nominating them to Jim Coleman, jcolemanoss72@gmail.com. The deadline for submission for the first set of awards is July 14th. 

 

Meeting Speaker: July 14

Hear how our new signature project will impact our community with an engaging talk by Rebecca Guinn, CEO, LifeLine Animal Project
