Bob Chadwick
Bob used his final meeting to recap many of the high points and achievements of the past year. He thanked many members, committee chairs, and the club in general for a successful year. Those points are outlined below.
As his final official act, President Bob passed the gavel to Harvey and then pinned the official President's Lapel Pin onto Harvey's collar.
This particular pin has been in the club for many years and has been passed from President to President down the years. One of the most important pieces of advice a former President can give to his successor, after passing that pin is "DON'T LOSE IT!"
Harvey Schneider
As his first official act, President Harvey inducted Tara Welch as the incoming President Elect. Tara will be followed by Carrie Strohkirch in two years.
Just as Bob had admonished him, Harvey fastened the pin to Tara's collar then said "DON'T LOSE IT!"
A most important part of any Rotary Club is recruiting new members. Over the past year, the club brought in seven new members. Following the induction of officers, the new President Harvey asked Andreas Teich to induce two new members and one returning member.
With the help of Pete Shannon's efforts the club added 7 new members. Three more were inducted today.
Our club's Rotary Hero Andrea Hales was recognized at the District Conference.
The Club presented the annual Rotary Outstanding Service and Excellence (ROSE) Award to Tim Holsworth.
Thanks to Frank Janca and his team for the great Club Socials.

A group of members got together to plant "Harvey's tree" in the Kantzler Arboretum. Afterward, they gathered at the Trombley House for snacks and beer!
