I’ve been a member of this Club for over six years and I still feel like a
relative rookie! What that means is not only do we have multiple
members who have been making great contributions to our community,
but many of our members have been making such great contributions
for a REALLY LONG TIME!
It goes without saying that our Club has had great leadership as long as
I’ve been affiliated with the Ridgewood AM Rotary, but what truly makes
this club special is the work of the core membership year in and year
out. From my perspective as your president, I think of my role similar to
the role of a conductor of a successful symphony. I’m not going to try to
replace the skill of our first chair musicians, but rather continue to make
sure our best musicians are staying in rhythm.
Our Club is in a very strong position and will continue to contribute to
projects around the globe, but most of our focus will remain in our local
community. I’m proud to say we participate in a broad spectrum of
projects such as our monthly food drive, annual scholarships and
assistance in minor local restorations to name a few.
Thanks to all of you for continuing to make the Ridgewood AM Rotary
Club a very special club and part of the fabric of the Ridgewood
community.
