Past President John and President Elect Tom congratulate outgoing President Kati on a successful year.
 
Club members gathered on a warm summer evening to enjoy al fresco dining and celebrate the time-honored tradition of paying tribute to our outgoing Club President as she hands the gavel to next year's leader. Jeff and Karen Kerns lent their lovely home for the event, and Social Chair Liz organized food and decorations around an Ecuadorian theme in recognition of President Kati's birth in Quito, Ecuador's capital city. 
 
Members enjoyed face-to-face fellowship and participated in a blind auction with proceeds kickstarting next year's presidential fund. Click the link below to see additional information and all the photos from this fun-filled event.

Is it Elvis? Incoming Club President Tom Fisher kicks off his year with a few words.

All in all a great way to close out Rotary year 2020-21 and kick off 2021-22.
