The March 24 hybrid meeting of the Williston-Richmond Rotary Club was a double delight. The morning marked the first club meeting featuring a delicious breakfast in over two years.
On top of that, the club hosted District Governor Michael Carrier, who shared a presentation on this year’s Rotary International theme, ‘Serve to Change Lives.’ He reminded us that, “Rotary is the premier humanitarian and peace building organization in the world that allows community members (not just elected officials) to engage in projects and interactions that literally change people's lives.” He reflected on the Rotary vision statement:
TOGETHER, we see a world
where PEOPLE unite and take action
to CREATE lasting
CHANGE across the globe,
in our communities, and in ourselves.
The club’s renewed engagement and energy will soon be put to great use when we host the return of Williston’s annual Easter Parade and Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 16. Started years ago by Bill Mikell and carried forward by his son, Andy, the well-loved event is returning after a two-year hiatus.
