President Althea thanked everyone for the Secret Angel gift bags. What a generous effort from our Rotary members!

 

 

Bill Patrick announced the Club to save the date of February 7, 2019 for the Annual Ski Trip.  The Vipers have already met and are scheming and planning shenanigans.

 

 

Please consider thanking Hess’s by donating any dollar amount to the gift baskets on the table. We are thankful for all they do for us throughout the year and the wonderful food they feed us!

 

 

Congratulations to Gil Bixler who was recently elected Commandant of the Marine Corps League of Lancaster County. He is also the national winner of the Toys for Tots leaders in this northeast region. Awesome job, Gil!

 

 

President Althea is pleased to announce Bob McClenathan as the new Club Facilitator. In this newly defined role, Bob will facilitate district and global grant applications. He will also assist the past president in maintaining the board of directors’ succession. He will work with the Rotary Foundation Committee to recommend strategies to the board of directors for the Foundation, focus on fundraising and improving community outreach.  Thank you for all you continue to do for our Club, Bob!

 

 

 

There was recently a change to the Rotary Club Board, as Paul Lynch has decided to step down so he can focus on being with his wife, Kelly, through her ongoing health issues. We wish Paul, Kelly, and the kids all the best!

 

Rob Gallagher has agreed to step up and become the new Secretary on the Board. Eric Elliott has come on board as a Director. We are thankful for these new additions of leadership to the Club!

 

 

The Club recently received a sweet note from a past club secretary. Barbara Kreider, now 85 years old, spent 17 years as a club secretary. She currently lives in a retirement home in Iowa. She wishes the members her best and loves getting the Rotarian magazine!
