The End of an Awesome Year
I want to thank everyone for making this such a great year. Wendy Guyton (assisted by Diane Demeroutis) must be thanked for bringing in 16 new members ! Wanda Bailey helped me retain most of my sanity by doing such a good job at lining up programs for every meeting. She also was instrumental in organizing the small group socials which our members really enjoyed.
The icing on the cake was our success at the district event held June 25th --- seven categories were up for awards and we placed first in three ! Those were:
Membership attraction
Membership retention
Having Fun !
Thank you for the opportunity to be your leader this year. It truly was an honor and I had a great time. I will now look forward to spending meaningful time on the golf committee, International Services committee, and the committee focused on Peace and Conflict resolution.
I’m very pleased to turn the job over to John Oszust who brings lots of experience and enthusiasm. I know he will bring a renewed spotlight on International Service as well as Environmental concerns. I ask you to join me in getting behind John and supporting him fully.
Thanks again for this wonderful job that I’ve enjoyed for the past year.
Yours in Rotary,
Gordon Wainwright
