Former members of SGR, including Don Pendleton, Jack Petersen and Janet O'Riley, two Rotarians from other clubs (Egor Shulman and Maria VanDerHeyden) and six other guests attended SGR's 92nd birthday party on Monday, January 30, 2023.
Past presidents Rick Schofield and Janet O'Riley reunite over lunch.
In 1987, Maria VanDerHeyden became D5420's first female member ... and is still actively involved in the Murray RC.
James Jackson reports on the Rotary Rudolf Run to Halchita.
Always the life of the party, Pdt. Dale led us in a game of Kahoots.
Twenty-two members of SGR came out to celebrate, some we haven't seen in awhile!
Joann Coleman came with cake and balloons to add more FUNNN to our party!
When asked, SGR member and local dentist BJ Cox wrote a check to The Rotary Foundation's Annual Fund to become SGR's 206th Paul Harris Fellow, on Monday, January 30.
The Paul Harris Fellow recognition acknowledges individuals who contribute, or who have had contributions of $1,000 or more made in their name to The Rotary Foundation.
For more information on the Paul Harris Fellow recognition for yourself or how you can use your points to recognize someone else who exemplifies the values and standards of Rotary, see Club Foundation Chair Kurt Johnson.
Whether you were just inducted or have been in Rotary for awhile but still have questions, please mark your calendar for Wednesday, February 8 when SGR will host this year's New Member Orientation.
This relaxed evening with friends will begin at 7 p.m. at the home of Tom and Allison McArthur, 126 N. Donlee Drive. It will be informative and fun.
Questions? Membership Chair Ray Absher has all the answers. You can reach him at rgabsher@msn.com.
A second, bright yellow club service t-shirt has been purchased for every member of SGR. If you haven't already claimed yours, please do so soon so you'll be "stylin'" at all upcoming service events.
Thanks to Chris Parker for making sure we are all correctly branded when we plant trees at Vernon Worthen Park, post flags at either of two St. George cemeteries for Memorial Day or travel to Guatemala for "service above self."
Board meeting(s) will be held on Monday, February 6 beginning at 10:45 a.m. at the BW Abbey Inn. As always, there is LOTS to discuss.
