The Wheel, July 12, 2011

 

Last Week's Program: 

 

President Todd Wishman presided over the annual meeting and installation of officers.  Past President and former District Governor Bill Reese conducted the installation proceedings.  The new officers of the club are shown on the club website.

President Todd reviewed the accomplishments of his year at the helm and highlighted three major new projects the club took on, the backpack of food project, the bicycle project and the orange juice stand.  All have been very successful and well received, supporting Todd’s quote that with shared commitment much is possible.

 

Todd also thanked many club members for service to specific committees and the club during the year. 

 

New President Jamie talked about his great experience at the Rotary International Convention in New Orleans and the theme for this year “Reach Within to Embrace Humanity”.   Jamie also mentioned a credo he had heard about and shared his thought that we might use it this year

 

 “is it fun?

“will I get hurt?”

“will anyone find out?”
