FAMILY OF ROTARY

Our membership cares deeply about the needs and concerns of our members. We don’t want to miss an opportunity to reach out in friendship when such concerns arise. The chairperson of this committee is Lynne Lindsey and all news should be directed to her at lynnehlindsay@outlook.com

Message from the President


Dear Rotarians, I am deeply grateful for your incredible support during this crucial time with our Rotary Youth Exchange student, Kaho. Special thanks to Bruce Peoples and Susan Rumble, for stepping up and graciously opening their homes and hearts to Kaho.  The current host family will continue for the first three months, and thankfully their family emergency is being resolved. Your generosity embodies the true spirit of Rotary.

I also want to extend our sincere appreciation to Rabbi Alex and Steve Malone for being ready to step in as backup hosts. Your commitment ensures that Kaho has a strong support network throughout her stay. Thank you all for exemplifying the Rotary motto of "Service Above Self”, I am so proud of our club and how we always rally to accomplish anything we set our minds to.

** Norma's Captivating Stories and What's Next**
A big thank you to Norma for sharing her incredible stories about private investigating and finding people at our last meeting. Her tales were not only fascinating but also a true testament to the power of persistence and keen observation. 

Don’t forget to pick up your directories—Joe Gillespie and his team did a fantastic job putting them together. These are essential tools to keep us all connected and informed.

Looking ahead, this week we have an exciting session lined up on Artificial Intelligence. We’ll be exploring how AI can change or enhance your life, and maybe even give you an "update" of your own! You won’t want to miss this one.

See you at the meeting!

Nancy Alterman
Roswell Rotary President, 2024-2025
