PROGRAM REVIEW
July 1, 2015
 
"Installation of
2015-16 Board of Directors  
and 
President Pat Anderson"
Roger McCabe installed the Rotary President, Officers and Board of Directors during the meeting today.
 
The following officers and directors were installed:
Vice President  
Craig Lively
Secretary   
Ryan Smith
Treasurer
Steve Lucas
Sergeant-at-arms  
Michael Perez
President-elect  
Ted Moor III
Presidential Advisor  
Angela Baker
Directors: 
Barry Bryant
  Lynn Castle
  Craig Escamilla
  Brenda Gray
  Leonard Juncker
  Sharon McCabe
  John Neely
  John Paschall
  Tim Sudela
                                 
Roger then installed Pat Anderson as President.  Pat has instituted a new “tradition” of Past Presidents passing the gavel on to the new President.  Pat wants the club to understand the strong continuity of the club through its Past Presidents and the Board of Directors members serving three year terms.
 
Pat then addressed the club with his plan for a successful Rotary year and beyond.  “Be a Gift to the World” is Rotary’s motto for the year 2015-2016.  To Pat, this is the perfect statement as he encourages members to use their own individual talents (gifts) to make the year a success.  His overall goals are clear: fellowship, interaction, growing business and growing memberships.  He is looking at new projects to enable club members to expand their interests and level of engagement.  He wants to make sure that members are aware that he is adding the 5th question to the Four-Way Test:  IS IT FUN?
 
President Pat is very humble about the trust that the club has placed in him and he wants members to know that their support is appreciated.   Pat closed his installation program with a Rotary video from District Conference with images presented of projects in the District and “Let There Be Peace on Earth” sung during the presentation.  It was a strong statement for taking our gifts and using them.
