January is Vocational Service Month
January is Rotary’s Vocational Service Month, a time to reflect on how our daily work can be a powerful form of service. Vocational Service reminds us that Rotary values integrity, high ethical standards, and the belief that every profession has the ability to strengthen our community.
Whether through mentoring, sharing expertise, or simply modeling fairness and respect in our work, Rotarians put “Service Above Self” into practice through their vocations.
For our club, this month is also an opportunity to honor the dignity of work and the contributions of professionals and tradespeople who help make our city thrive.
In that spirit, our club will be hosting a “Service Above Self” awards presentation during our January 13 meeting. Thank you to Jennifer and the Vocational Service Committee for for their work on this, and please see the calendar for more details.
What’s on Deck
January 13- Service Above Self Awards
January 20- Mayor Don McIsaac to address club with a general update from City Hall, plus Student of the Month presentations
