Protecting Yourself from Identity Theft

At our recent Roswell Rotary meeting, Sindy gave a compelling and eye-opening presentation on identity theft. The alarming rise in cybercrime has left many of us questioning the safety of using our devices and credit cards. While her talk revealed the dark side of digital theft, it also empowered us with the tools and knowledge to stay safe.

It’s easy to feel anxious about the risks, but with the right precautions, you can continue using your devices and credit cards confidently. After all, it’s not about avoiding technology altogether—it’s about being proactive and informed.

This Week’s Speaker – Dan Garrett on His Inspiring Journey from “The Pole to the Pew”

This week, we are thrilled to welcome back Dan Garrett, a former Roswell Rotarian, who will be speaking about his powerful book, “The Pole to the Pew.” In this compelling account, Dan shares the incredible story of how he and his team transformed the infamous Pink Pony—once a well-known adult entertainment venue—into a vibrant community center and house of worship.

For years, the Pink Pony was a source of controversy in the area. However, Dan and his team saw an opportunity for redemption. Through dedication, collaboration with community leaders, and a commitment to positive change, they faced the daunting challenge of converting the site into a space where people could come together, support one another, and strengthen their faith.

Dan will discuss the many hurdles they encountered along the way, including legal struggles and opposition, as well as the remarkable success of turning a divisive establishment into a place that now serves as a pillar of the community. The journey from “The Pole to the Pew” is a testament to the power of vision, perseverance, and faith in creating lasting, meaningful change.

We are excited to hear Dan’s story of how this transformation was achieved, and the inspiring message of hope and unity it brings. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from Dan Garrett and learn how a place once seen in a negative light became a symbol of growth and community restoration.

Join us for this week’s meeting as we welcome Dan Garrett back to Roswell Rotary!

Let’s stay safe out there!
