The annual Club Installation dinner was held at the Jetty on the Port on Sunday, June 24th. Outgoing President Bob Spatola reviewed this year's accomplishments and thanked all members who were instrumental in making the year successful (too many for this poor editor to list....). Outgoing officers were also thanked for their work (VP Dave Shaheen, Secretary Rocco Leone, Treasurer Bob Scheidt, Sgt. At Arms Peter Mendick). It was another successful year of fundraising for Pasta Dinner and Reverse Drawdown Dinner, and there were new recipients of our charity: No One Left Behind and Drug Free Irondequoit: Together coalition. New President Dave Shaheen introduced his officers (VP Bob Scheidt, Treasurer Kenn Van Dieren, Secretary Mark Hiscock, and Sgt. At Arms Peter Mendick) and pledged to make the year fun but accomplish all our goals of community service. Good luck to Dave and his leadership team for a very successful year which all starts with the 4th of July Parade this Wednesday July 4th meet at 10:00 am - wear red Rotary shirts and white pants! and meet at Dake on Cooper Rd. This year's recipient of the club's Paul Harris Award was Doug Decker. He was introduced by BJ Cunningham who read inspiring letters from his children which demonstrated Doug's "Service Above Self." Congratulations to Doug for a well deserved honor. ANNUAL DUES ARE DUE. The dues have been raised to $160 so please bring to next meeting. |
