Start planning for a weekend to remember….Just Imagine!

“Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach. Any small, calm thing that one soul can do to help another soul, to assist some portion of this poor suffering world, will help immensely. It is not given to us to know which acts or by whom, will cause the critical mass to tip toward an enduring good. What is needed for dramatic change is an accumulation of activity, adding, adding to, adding more, continuing. We know that it does not take everyone on Earth to bring justice and peace, but only a small, determined group who will not give up during the first, second, or hundredth gale.” Clarissa Pinkola Estes

The Rotary District Grants Committee thanks you! All of the 2022-23 District Grants are compliant - the required project reports have been submitted before deadline.

When professionals join a Rotary club, they do so as a representative of their classification – their particular business or profession. We have the dual responsibility of representing our vocation within the club and exemplifying the ideals of Rotary within the workplace.

Happy New Year! And welcome 2023. We are now halfway through our Rotary year, and I want to give a huge thank you to everyone who has contributed to the Rotary Foundation this Rotary year. Here is an update on where we are as a District in giving to the annual fund and Polio.

The Rotary Youth Exchange Committee interviewed prospective high school students to sponsor next year as Rotary Youth Exchange students on December 10^th. We offered several students a sponsorship and are waiting to hear if they accept. 

As clubs review dues for members, include the Rotary required items plus the Club costs supported with member assessment.
