Highway Spring Clean Up

Posted on May 21, 2019

It may have been mid-May, but it was gloomy and brisk when our intrepid crew of volunteers met recently for the semi-annual highway clean-up. A commitment is a commitment.

They got right to work and other than our president running a-muck at one point, the event went without incident. It's amazing the amount and variety of trash they picked up: a pillow, purple snakeskin pants, hubcaps, beer cans galore, a dust cap, a chocolate milk carton ... they even met a friendly little mouse. Sure feels good to know only the mouse remains!

Thank you to this crew and their organizer, Carey Gray! Pictured here, from left, they are Todd Neighbor, Bill Knick, Jennifer Creed, Eric Hinebauch, Leon Green III, Carey, and Kurt Baltrusch.

Envisioning our future

Posted on Apr 30, 2019

Keeping in mind what we learned from our recent Member Satisfaction Survey, Rotarians gathered recently to chart our future directions for the club. In preparation for the session, the board had narrowed down the survey results to four subjects: Fundraising, Community and International Projects, Club Membership and Youth Programs. The participants in the visioning session broke out into four groups to discuss the topics and share a vision for a path we’d like our club to take in the next one to three years.

Jeremiah Johnson Brewery Tour and Tasting

Posted on Feb 17, 2019

Some twenty hardy Rotarians braved the cold this week to gather for our monthly social and take a tour at the Jeremiah Johnson Brewing Company.

Jeremiah is a former Rotarian and recently gave a presentation to the noon membership about the rigors and rewards of competing in the beer-brewing business. (Say THAT 5 times fast after you've had a few pale ales!) Members enjoyed the opportunity to "take a peek behind the curtain" and see the inner workings of such an operation. It was also a great opportunity to for evening and noon members to share some time together.
