Message From President - Feel Free to Join Us Virtually!
What an amazing organization Rotary is! With 1.4 million members in 46,000 Clubs
around the world, Rotary has the ability to do amazing work to serve and help
communities locally, nationally and internationally.  Rotary International
President Gordon McInally wants  to Create Hope in the World.  This year, he
encourages Clubs to prioritize projects to support mental health, discuss
emotional and mental well-being, strengthen our personal connections, and put
emphasis on the life saving impact of preventive care and treatment.  In
addition, he wants to continue the past initiative to empower women and girls.
Our Club members have put forward several great ideas to make this happen. 
Please consider joining Rotary and help our Club bring these ideas to fruition!
Join us Tuesday at noon to socialize.  The meeting proper starts at 12:30. If
you would like to join us virtually for our Tuesday meeting, please email me at
marciaarmstrongRCWO@gmail.com and I will send you the Zoom link.
 
Yours in Rotary
Marcia Armstrong,
President 2023-24
