Last Thursday, President Elect Bec led the process of listing proposed service projects and fundraising activities for the 2024-25 Rotary year. Around thirty ideas were listed on butcher's paper along with coordinators, and they will form a solid basis for our club's 24-25 service and fundraising programs. Click "Read more..." for the current list of suggested projects and activities. Other ideas can, of course, be suggested and confirmed by the Board during the coming year. Next month, we will seek support from members for each of these projects and activities at our "Program Buy-In Event".
