President's Message

A big thank you to Dan and Ellen Clark for hosting us at their home for a delightful lobster boil (or steak).  Our thanks also to Kent Gagnon who shuttled us from the church near by and to all the good cooks who brought appetizers, salad and desserts. Dan is a great cook, which you all know, but this was very special.  He even gave some of us instructions on how to eat a whole lobster. It is important to get together socially with our spouses or guests.  It makes us a better club if we get together in fellowship.
 
Our BBQ's went very well and you can all be proud of what was accomplished and how many Rotarians and volunteers were at work. Thank you to each one of you.  Our profit for the entire season was the greatest we have ever achieved and will be put to good use in scholarships and Life Leadership training.  A special thank you to Kent Gagnon, chair of the BBQ's and Dan Clark, head cook, for their commitment to making these events a success.  Even our District Governor and Ass't Governor helped out.
 
We have started the Rotary History project by sorting 6 boxes of Rotary records, pictures,etc. from Doug Gordon.  Doug was a member for 47 years and passed away almost a year ago. He pulled these records together for his wife, Kathy, to give to us.
Doug had served as President in 1975-76 and 1994-1995.  He was a great photographer and has preserved much of our history. We
 are sorting at the Henze Center and will be scheduling more dates to complete the task. Your help is appreciated.
