Howdy My Fellow Rotarians and Friends,
Okay, not that I am counting, but can we all hang on for six (6) more weeks, five (5) meetings, and one installation celebration. Although you may see incoming President Neal McEwen handling meeting No. 5. Can hardly stand it? LOL
Good news! I had thought to have a final report/review June 13, but decided to just do a few notes in my corner over the remaining weeks rather than bore you with a formal event.
My general view is that it's been a pretty good year overall. There have been some challenges as we struggled with a few changes that I thought might be good - bringing on ClubRunner, adjusting the meeting layout, looking at how we operate, and making recommendations to the board for ways to enhance our club, all come to mind.
But there have also been some great fun moments. Working on service projects, attempting to lead both Club and Board meetings (and missing a detail here and there, even with an agenda in hand...What can I say!), I may have even learned a thing or two.
If I have done nothing else, some of these ideas have worked to energize us to get us past a level of complacency, and hope that this change will continue.
A high note for me has been working with a really great group of people. I hope that you will never forget that our Prescott-Sunup is "THE Wicked Good Club!" And that is thanks to the many members who are supportive of Rotary and your leaders. Those who can be counted on to step up and contribute money and/or their time and effort to make it so.
Till Wednesday, keep the peace and keep smilin',
A.J.
