Presidential Message August 2019

Mark Maloney  -  President 2019-20

During 2019-2020, I am encouraging Rotarians and Rotaractors to grow Rotary.   We must grow our service, we must grow the impact of our projects, but, most importantly, we must grow our membership so that we can achieve more.

Let us try a new approach to membership, one that is more organized and strategic.   I am asking every club to form an active membership committee consisting of people of different backgrounds who will look methodically at the leadership of the community.
