For nearly 40 years, Mark Daniel Maloney and his family have demonstrated that Rotary connects the world. Now the self-described 'cheerful traveler' embarks on the next phase of his life's journey: serving as Rotary International's new president.
It is our goal to have enough sponsorship from members
of the club to make our website and these e-bulletins
self-supporting. If you enjoy these electronic updates and
appreciate our club having a presence on the website
it's time to step up. For the low fee of $50, your business
ad is not only included in each of these e-bulletins and on
the website pages, these ads are active links that take you
to your business's website. Don't have a business and
still want to help, we can include an ad thanking you for
your sponsorship. For more informationemailBill Wicker.

I'd like to take this opportunity to brag on the clubs I visited this week. Our Plant City Clubs are off to a Great start as Bruce Rodwell of Plant City Daybreak and Doug Watson of the Plant City Club gear up on membership initiatives and their projects. The Highlands County Club, Led by Anastasia Saunders is gearing up for membership gains and their signature 24 hour Bike Ride. Ray Ploucher and his team at Tampa Westshore are shaking things up with fewer formal luncheons, more socials and a membership push. Ybor City is rolling into the new year with their continued emphasis on their community and has a great team in place with Anthony Scaglione at the helm. Our Tampa Rotaract club has been on a roll and has a CART initiative this year with a goal of raising $40,000 and I know that with Gema Mora leading the team they will accomplish their goal. Tampa Interbay, led by Stephen Kauffman and his team are working towards expanding their reach by creating a networking directory. We will be working with them and Rotary Means Business to create amazing networking events. Interbay has also altered their meeting structure, frequency and venue. I think its going to be a Home Run.
Thanks for all of your hospitality this week, I look forward to visiting you all soon.
I hope to see our Presidents, Membership Chairs, Rotary Foundation Chairs and Public Image Chairs at our MEMBERSHIP, PUBLIC IMAGE and FOUNDATION SUMMIT at Keiser University on Saturday July 27th. If those mentioned cant make it, please consider sending someone in their place. This is a worthwhile use of your time. Click Here for more.
I will be cooking something delicious for us to enjoy for lunch, so come out and lets learn a few things and break bread with Rotary family.
