Today we thanked Julie Cotton, officially, for her July 2023-June 2024 Rotary President's Year.
This year's new President Andrew Harman presented Julie with a plaque and a President's lapel pin as a token of appreciation for her excellent service and leadership this past year.
 
We also finished our election for immediate Elkhart Rotary Club Board Members to fill vacancies on the Board beginning at our first meeting of the new Rotary Year this coming Friday. THANK YOU to Ashley Bowen and Dawn Fisher, who were elected by a majority of the club's membership. Our sincere thanks to those who volunteered for our slate of board member candidates and we're confident we can get/keep you active in our volunteer service.
 
Andrew also shared THIS LINK to a survey this morning via email and seeks YOUR feedback as club members. This feedback will enable our club's leadership team to guide the club in a way that best reflects the goals of our members.
