President`s Message

The global pandemic of COVID19 has impacted almost every aspect of our lives. We have had to quickly change the way we live our lives and I suspect while some changes might be temporary, others might become the new norm.
 

We need to be able to adapt to the current situation and try to reduce disruption to activities that are important and meaningful to us. An example of this is our weekly luncheon meeting.
 

While we can not meet in person and enjoy the company of one another, the beautiful venue at the Blue Water Grill and the hospitality of our servers, it would be stating the obvious that our weekly meeting is critical for the continuance and growth of our club. Being Rotarians, we will persevere and forge ahead.
 

I am happy to announce that we will meet virtually next Wednesday, the 25th of March and will continue to do so till it is safe for all of us to be in the same room, without social distancing. 
 

We will convert the challenge into an opportunity. We will use these virtual meetings to get to know one another better and continue the fellowship. We will therefore have our own club members give vocational or craft talks. We will have announcements and even some social time. As we get more accustomed to virtual meetings, we might even have speakers at our meetings. I will learn, with the rest of the club how this all pans out.
 

John Barnett is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
