Buffalo Rotarian Jerry Kelly has been instrumental in the creation of the Canisius University Rotaract Club. They held their first Rotaract event March 2nd at Buffalo Rotary’s section of the Niagara Greenway Trail between Lakefront Blvd and Erie St. Niagara Greenway Executive Director Greg Stevens and Jerry Kelly organized the event that included a cleanup phase, with landscape specialist Jim Jones of the Tonawanda Rotary, tree specialist Glen Gentzke of the Kenmore Rotary, and environmental Professor Erin Robinson (club advisor).Rotary International got back to Jerry Kelly a little over a week ago on our club application and indicated that we should expect approval for the Rotaract club coming soon.
All in all, it was a great launch for our Canisius University Rotaract Club.
