Our meeting last week was packed full of memorable moments! AG Mike Harrington introduced Aaron Carlson who will be our District Governor in 2026-27. Aaron gave a short talk.Then President Janese called Rotarian Pete Bills to the front where in a surprise presentation by DG (District Governor) Dave Alexander, Pete was presented his Paul Harris +4 pin!
And then, Susan Landrigan was inducted as our newest WM Rotary Club member by DG Dave Alexander, as her sponsor Beth Hocking looked on! Welcome Rotarian Susan!
And then…DG Alexander was introduced and gave a great talk regarding Rotary, and cited some of our own club’s accomplishments over the past 95 years!
He noted that Rotary’s work in ending polio wasn’t done yet.
In his final comments, he stressed that Rotarians should continue their volunteer endeavors and assist the world in making peaceful strides.
And then…Dave followed up by giving a little Canadian treat of “Coffee Crisp” to each person in attendance!!!
A reception and time for socializing followed the meeting. Just a great Rotarian evening indeed!
