Our Rotary Club is a collection of talented, diverse, passionate women and men, with unified goals. So, no surprise, RC Buffalo Sunrise closed out 2024 with an energetic and productive strategic planning activity led by Mara Huber. Our morning holiday gathering also featured a fun filled, sometimes raucous, white elephant gift exchange. On to 2025 and partnership opportunities within our local area, internationally, and with District 7090!
We look forward to a busy year with a strong focus on our Niagara Greenway Adopt-A-Trail commitment, support in partnership with other area clubs on significant projects, a new fundraising activity for club projects, growth of the BSR Foundation, and of course our continuing commitment to Youth Exchange.
We appreciate the varied talents of our members, engaged in international efforts in Africa, mental health issues, the environment, human trafficking awareness, and fun!
We give a special shout out to our strong leadership: the ever-energetic President Timothy Priano and Past President Melanie Rushforth, Greg Norton (Youth Exchange), Melissa Brinson (Social Coordinator), Jeff Lebsack and Barbara Ochterski (Rotary Greenway Steering Committee), Paige Mason (Social Media), Denis Lefebrve (Bicycle Collection and Repair and everything else). We could not be who we are without all our great members!
