President Jim's Message

Hello Newark Rotarians,
 
March has arrived and we will soon see the crocuses shooting up from the ground, followed by the daffodils.  Spring is the time of rejuvenation, which we’re all looking forward to after a long winter’s rest.
 
March will see a gathering of possible members for Newark Rotary’s proposed satellite club on March 10th.  Should it come to pass, it will be the first such club in District 7120, and we’re all excited about that.  Thanks to Holly Kreuser who is the main force behind this effort.
 
March is Water, Sanitation and Hygiene month, and the trip to Tabi that Linda Werts and Donna Johnson will be taking from March 8th through the 17th fits right in with it.  This trip will support the water project that we helped to establish there a few years ago.  As Maria Perez said, “Clean water isn’t just a basic necessity; it’s a cornerstone for peace, prosperity, and sustainable development.”  We thank Linda and Donna for representing us. 
 
There’s more to come, and much that happened in February, as shown in this edition of the bulletin.  Stay active and involved.  You are the life of the organization.   
 
 Yours in Rotary Service,
 Jim

During our last meeting in February Holly Kreuser spoke to us about the Newark Rotary Satellite Club and why we are working to get it started.
 
President Jim and Past President Adam had a friendly competition to see we could collect more items for the Laurel House in Jim's year over Adam's year. Click the photo for comparison photos and you be the judge!
