FELLOWSHIP LUNCH

Join us at the Missoula Country Club on June 29th at 11:45 to enjoy a no host fellowship lunch.  Each month we gather together just to eat and get to know one another.   The four way test encourages us to " build goodwill and better friendships".  This is one way we celebrate Rotary with each other.   Please RSVP if you are coming so tables can be set up and ready for the group.  Pictured above is last months fellowship luncheon attendees.  

DEMOTION DINNER

Dressed in togas and gold leaf, Rotarians roasted President Dean Fiedler at the June 22nd evening dinner in his honor.   Dean is an avid History buff so they roasted him in song, poems and play.  At one point Dean sat on a throne overseeing his subjects and they praised his work in Rotary.   A cake was donated by Diane Dawson and the meal provided by the Missoula Country Club was delicious.   Members came up and shared stories and gave Dean a night he won't soon forget.  Below are pictures of their merry evening.  Many thanks to Victoria, Ryan and Mike for organizing this fun evening.  Dean also had his parents join in on zoom so they could watch the festivities from Washington.

Letter from the Editor

Greetings Rotarians!

With Royce out of the country in Guatemala, helping with our Montana Rotary Coalition project, I'm filling in with a letter from the Editor.  Greetings from Sunny Miramar Beach, Florida.  With the President and Immediate Past President out of town, we're in the good hands of President Elect Rick Oncken this week, he's done such a great job filling in for Royce the last two times, I can't wait to see what he does in his year as president, in just over 6 months from now.  In the first few months of 2023 we'll be forming our annual Nominating Committee, to help select the President Elect Nominee for the year following Rick & our new board members, so stay tuned for that announcement. I look forward to seeing you all at the Holiday Party!
