Thursday, July 16th Guest Speaker
"I was lucky enough to be able to travel to other countries and see firsthand that other people may live slightly differently than us, but their cultures had a lot to offer that we could learn from ourselves", Ambassador Nicholas Collins.
 
The Borgen Project believes that leaders of the most powerful nation on earth should be doing more to address global poverty. We’re the innovative, national campaign that is working to make poverty a focus of U.S. foreign policy.  
 
Nicholas will be our Guest Speaker on Thursday, July 16th.  You can join us online by clicking here.
 

 

New Rotary Year
                                                                         Welcome to a New Rotary year!
 
Dear Rotarians,
 
Rotary is People of Action. We are where neighbors, friends and problem-solvers share ideas, join leaders and take action to create lasting change. 
 
We are being met with unforeseen challenges in our world and I am so proud to be taking these issues on together with you. Our mission, "Service Above Self" will help build connection to each other and our community even when we may feel so separated. 
 
The health and safety of our members and community will be a top priority as we move through this year together.  
 
I am so excited about OUR upcoming year and the actions WE will take to create lasting change in the world. 
 
It is my honor to be of service to our club and community. 
 
Thank you,
President Mary Christensen
