Guest 
Happy New Year everyone! We’ve reached the halfway point of Rotary Year 2024-25 and President Jared's term as club president. At this week's meeting, Jared will lead with an opportunity to reflect on the first half of the year - achievements, challenges, learning experiences and growth opportunities. His thoughtful presentation will also address where we are, identify areas where we can improve, and set the tone for the second half of the year. This meeting will help us reconnect with the vision for the year and ensure that we’re all working in harmony to achieve our goals. Jared's focus will be on the importance of collaboration, the value of our committee system, and how we can continue to make Rotary a habit in our lives. Before tomorrow's meeting, please take a minute to read Rotary International President Stephanie A. Urchick's message Bring the Joy on page 1 of this month's Rotary Magazine | 4 |
