Announcements 
 
Rotary Information: (from Jenn Graf) My Rotary factoid this week is a direct message from our Rotary International President, Barry Rassin; "Our theme in this Rotary year is BE THE INSPIRATION. I chose this theme because, throughout my years in Rotary, I have seen that what truly motivates Rotarians is their work.  The Rotarians who have the biggest impact through their service are not always the women and men with the greatest resources, the most experience, or the largest networks.  They are the ones who ar inspired.  Whether it was something they did, something they saw, or someone they met, they have all had experiences that lit them on fire - and inspired them to serve.  This year I ask each of you not only to seek that inspiration within yourselves, but to BE THE INSPIRATION for others.  work to build clubs and districts with Rotarians who find meaning in their service, who know they are having and impact , and who are inspired to so even ore.  Lead with passion, lead by example - and lead Rotary to a future even stronger that its present.
 
Upcoming Club Programs are being posted once a month in the Clinton Herald.
