“Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale.” —Lauren Destefano
Greetings Rotarians!
Fall is upon us, the cooling air has arrived and with it a lot of fun and impactful Rotary activities are coming up. This week’s meeting will be Sunup Time, and there is much to do and talk about. Highlights for the meeting include:
- Working together to put our club sticker on the flagpoles we are donating to the American Legion on 21 Oct.
- Learning the results of our club’s priority Community Service Projects from last month’s Sunup Time.
- Getting a presentation on our upcoming Chili Cookoff and Polio Eradication fundraiser on 24 Oct—last day to buy your ticket at a discount!
- Open forum for whatever is on your mind.
- Oh Ya, have a couple of good news, special announcements too😉.

There are three six-hour Saturday experiences:
RC1 — Discover Rotary
Especially valuable for newer members who want to understand the organization they have joined, meet Rotarians beyond their own club, discover opportunities, and begin finding their own path in Rotary.
RC2 — Expand Your Rotary Experience
A deeper exploration of Rotary, service, engagement, connection, and opportunities to increase personal and community impact.
RC3 — Lead Through Service
An experiential servant-leadership experience focused on becoming a more effective leader, influencer, mentor, and catalyst for others.
These are not traditional lecture-style training sessions. Participants will be talking, doing, sharing, reflecting, solving, connecting, and learning from one another. Sessions will be facilitated by members of our District Governor leadership team and other dynamic presenters.
Rotary Connections — Where Rotarians find their place and their purpose
See you Wednesday!
