PRESIDENTS' CORNER ... by Pres., Mary Giroux
Thanks to the hard work, generosity, and talents of all of our Club members we learned that in the 2016-2017 Rotary year our Club provided over $30,000 in fundraising proceeds to local, national and international organizations that make this world a better place. In addition to that, we also gave of our time to help with the morning club's Winterfest, help with the Firemen's Field Days, pack Books for the World, erect some playground equipment and man the Salvation Army kettle at Christmastime. I am sure I am leaving something out. In doing all of that as a Club we had some fun too! I hope you are all looking forward to a new year of Club adventures. I am. Enjoy your week and see you on Thursday.
