There were lots of aspects to our program this week and it kind of happened during the meeting rather than at the end. First off Past District Governor Leslie Barmania just happened to be on Zoom and Past President Chad and Kim were in attendance. Perhaps a coincidence. Anyway Leslie said that our club was in good standing and that President Chad had achieved a total of 12 goals in order to earn this citation. FYI not every president gets a citation!! I am not sure scoring 12 goals is a record but it sure sounded like a lot. Ever so humble Past president Chad thanked Leslie and the club. He said he couldn't have done without the assists of his board... Assists scored by Tom Everette , Paul McMenemy, Randy Cole Erica Tennenbaum, Heidi, Linda B , Rena H, Todd Lyons, Roger Mann, and Brian Waddell. ( order not necessarily in the number of assists scored as no one kept track.) Since Past President Chad was on a roll he continued on and announced that Rotarion of the Year was Randy Cole. Randy also humbled said he only wants to do what he can. Roger then presented Chad what every Past President dreams of. A real pretend fake diamond Past Presidents pin!!! I am not sure of the exact order on this but at some point Roger spoke about Rotary International Foundation. November is Foundation month. The Foundation was started with a donation of 26.50 US$. Rotary International foundation helps people with needs all over the world.. We should all consider Rotary International as a charity of choice and consider it in when updating your will. Brian Waddell then spoke about an initiative that the club is starting. He is looking to put 20 second spots from our members on why they joined Rotary and what they enjoy about it. I think this is going on our website and social media. This is to be completed by January. Think about what you would say. . President Heidi closed the meeting. |
