President's MessageInternational Day of Education
Monday January 24th was International Day of Education, so the timing of having our guest and past DG Alicia Michaels visit us and present a special award was perfect. Just under 20% of the worlds adult population are illiterate. Rotary International has Basic Education and Literacy as one of its seven core focus areas. Roswell Rotary has supported the Laws of Life essay contest for 15 years contributing to this area of focus. Thank you to Alicia for joining us and Stacy Perlman for many years of leading this effort for our club.
Its cold outside! Why not jump in a frigid cold lake with a group of police officers from Roswell's finest, all to benefit Special Olympics? This week we will be joined by another guest, Officer Jennifer Bennett from our police department to see who is brave enough to jump in a lake, all for a great cause. Come join me on February 19th!
