PRESIDENT'S CORNER ... by Prez Bill
Greetings,Skantarians! Finally, weather in keeping with the beauty of our community! This past week we enjoyed a heartfelt presentation by one of our new members and recognized four of our own with Paul Harris awards, all of whom are multiple recipients! We are truly a fortunate group who reciprocate the personal success we have enjoyed through giving back to our community and the world through Rotary. Thank you for your generosity of spirit and contribution. To echo John Moran's sentiments - the pancake breakfast is nearly upon us: sell, Sell, SELL those tickets! Thank you and see you next week!
LAST WEEK: .... by Ward Vuillemot
Tim's Classification Talk - Skaneateles Rotary's new member, Tim Donovan, talked a bit about his professional back ground and shared his reasons and passion for helping others in the Auburn Community though the various service and local charity and local service organization; hence, his chosen classification of "Community Advocacy". Tim first joined Rotary 5 years ago with the Auburn club, where is remained active until his decision to move his membership to our club. Take some time to introduce yourself to Tim, and make him welcome in our membership.
Paul Harris Fellow Recognitions - Four of our members were recognized for their continue significant support of the Rotary Foundation through financial support. All four are multiple-Paul Harris Follows, which means that they have advanced far in the excess of their original Paul Harris recognition status. These generous Rotarians, and others like them, are the key to the support of the Rotary Foundation and its many humanitarian, health, literacy and peace promotion projects.
