Last meeting we had the privilege of hosting our District Governor, Linda Kohl. Linda shared with the club her vision for the current year. Additionally, Linda got to help welcome the newest member of our club as we inducted Steve Nash. Steve is a great addition to the club bringing a career's worth of experience in the Greece School District. Welcome Steve!
Greece Rotarians could be found during the month of October cutting "Stars for our Troops", and program to recognize our veterans, as well as, supporting our own Rotary members, as Mike Garver held an open house for his new business, Minute Man Press on West Ridge Rd.
For over 35 years Rotary International has been working to eradicate Polio from the planet...and we are almost there! Saturday was World Polio Day. It is easy to make a donation to the eradication effort using the following link: https://my.rotary.org/en/donate
Seeing the success and benefit of this 35 year effort, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation also matches each donation, dollar for dollar.
Any donation is appreciated AND doubled! Thanks!
The month of July saw the addition and induction of two new members into the Club. Cameron Knaub and David Georgiev of The Guardians of Hope joined the club.
