Active transportation in the City of St. George is an integral piece of the transportation puzzle, providing ways for people to reach their destinations regardless of mode. Lloyd Sutton has been the Active Transportation Coordinator for the City of St. George since 2022 and has overseen many great improvements and initiatives, including the installation of trail counters and writing a grant to secure funding for two future underpasses, at 400 East and 900 South.  He will come prepared to share all the latest and greatest information in trails and overpasses around town.

And, be aware we've been booted out of the Abbey Inn again this week.  As such, we will be meeting upstairs at Chubby's Cafe at 188 N. St. George Blvd. so you might want to come a little early to order your lunch.

Dan Strobell has been leading a company of Rotarians and other humanitarian volunteers on a lifechanging journey to Maya villages in Guatemala for 18 years.  What began with members of his own family has now expanded to include most of the members of St. George Rotary, some from Cedar City Rotary; others in District 5420 ... and this year, even included donors from Ohio!  The Guatemala stoves project - named Utah Rotary District's "International Project of the Year" in 2024 - is a humanitarian project building simple vented cinderblock stoves for villagers who have before been cooking over open fires inside their homes.  Now numbering 3400+ stoves in many Maya homes, this year Rotarians took along Happy Factory toys, hundreds of hand knit or crocheted caps, a large supply of vitamins, dry beans and other services.

This project has changed many lives.  Please invite friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to experience the "Magic of Rotary" in action to join us at the Pasta Factory meeting room.

Welcome back this year's four amazing and adventurous young men and women - and two alums - who represented their community, their school and St. George Rotary Club at Utah Rotary's Youth Leadership Awards/Academy at Wasatch Academy on June 9-12.  Rotary's future generation - and SGR's Youth Chair Ryan Davis - will share some of their experiences and what they learned as RYLArians.

Bring interested friends, family members, neighbors or co-workers.

Come one, come all.

NO MEETING TODAY but tonight we'll be gathering at the Utah Tech Alumni House (684 E. 500 South) for our annual "passing the baton" event as we celebrate the successes of RY2024-25 under President Dave Prisbrey's leadership and look forward to more successes with President-elect LaRene Cox at the helm. 

We will also be inducting our RY2025-26 club officers, "awarding" some of our members, and "recognizing" others.  It's going to be lots of FUNNN and you won't want to miss it.

SGR will provide the main course, but if your surname begins with A-I, please plan to bring a salad or a side dish (beans, chips, etc.).  If your last name begins with J-S, please bring your favorite dessert to share and if your last name begins with T-Z, you are asked to bring drinks.

Come one, come all.  There will be food, friends and FUNNN ... guaranteed!
