PRESIDENT ALEX'S MESSAGE
Fellow Rotarians:
I hope that everyone enjoyed Tomer’s
presentation last week as much as I did. Thank you to Kurt Hilbert for
arranging such a unique speaker. I encourage everyone to think about other
great speakers and to provide their information to Alicia so that we can
continue to have the best of the best visit us and keep our meetings
interesting.
This week we are having an all-out Blitz
for our Golf/Tennis/Pickle Ball Tournament. Please make sure we have as many
sponsors, players, and volunteers as possible. This is our Club’s signature
fundraising event and makes our charitable impact possible. We are all members
of the Golf/Tennis/Pickle Committee. Thank you to Bob Clarkson for his
leadership!
This Thursday will be the introduction of our buffet lunch experience.
Please be patient as we work together on the logistics. The plan for Thursday
is that our plates will be at the buffet and all other items will be set at
your table to make it easy for everyone.

This Wednesday- Summer Blood Drive at Houck's
Click here for Hal's Video
Fellow Rotarians - We are coming down to the final day of signing up Donors and blood supplies are critically low. Let's put on the final push and put Service above Self!
It sure was inspirational seeing our friend Hal Coleman on video last week. Hal will be the first to tell you that he's glad there are people out there giving blood routinely cause that's what saved his life. Please honor Hal by donating blood or contacting friends and family members that are able to give.
As we mentioned at our last meeting, we now have both a Pint for Pint thanks to Variant Brewing and a 10% discount on the next meal at Houck's for all those who donate!
Please make contacts and join us on Wednesday, August 23rd at Houck’s Grill.

RRAH Meeting Recap
It was an exciting week for Roswell Rotary After Hours! The club welcomed mental health advocate Zack Houston as their guest speaker for their meeting. He spoke on his new organization, A Friend in Me, and how RRAH can support its mission of leading better and more intentional conversations around mental health.
At the meeting, members brought in school supplies as part of a drive benefiting the Children's Development Academy. RRAH member Lindsay Davies dropped off the donations and the CDA was thrilled for the support during a busy back-to-school season.
The club also officially welcomed a new member, Bill Brooks! Bill is a staff accountant at Brady Ware and has already made a large impact on the club in his short time with them.
The next RRAH meeting is Tuesday, September 5th--same time, same place!
