Plan to attend President's Night Friday, June 24
 
 
As our Rotary year draws to a close, it's time to celebrate, recognize and thank club members who made 2015-16  memorable and successful. President's Night also looks ahead to the 2016-17 Rotary year and salutes the new officers, Club Board and Foundation Board members.
 
While our club focuses on Service Above Self, this event is an evening to look within the organization and take pride in the year's accomplishments. It's a special program and we hope you will join in the fun, food and fellowship.
 
When? Friday, June 24 5:30 p.m. cash bar, 6 p.m. dinner, and 7 p.m. program
Where? The Other Side Theater (our regular meeting room)
Cost? $20 per person
Who? You and your guests
How? Please contact Karol Rinehart, Club Administrator at kj.rinehart@centurylink.net or by calling her at (970) 586-5719.

President Scott Thompson called the meeting to order for the last time.Tara Moenning gave the invocation. Dave Evans led us in singing “In the Good Old Summertime”, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance. Phil Moenning introduced visiting Rotarian Kristi Elyce from the morning Rotary club who was also presenting the weekly program. President Scott read a prayer written by Al Wasson “And So Let it Be” in honor of Bob Hamblin, whose memorial service was held last week.
