FAMILY OF ROTARY
Our membership cares deeply about the needs and concerns of our members. We don’t want to miss an opportunity to reach out in friendship when such concerns arise. The chairperson of this committee is Lynn Dunn and all news should be directed to her at lynn.dunn@rmcpa.com
President's Message
As we approach the twenty-year anniversary of four coordinated terrorist attacks by al-Qaeda on our nation, it’s hard to believe this much time has passed. But the feelings of that day and the memory of where I was that moment I heard the news are still very clear. Help us memorialize that day and celebrate the heroic effort of our first responders when we host our cookout for the Roswell Police and Fire department at station #4 on Saturday September 11, 2021. Jack Wyche and Dave Young are leading the charge and need your help. Please reach out to them and lend your support.
This last week we heard from our very own Jon-Paul Croom and Dr. Breshears of WellStar about mental hearth and how this issue touches everyone in our community. Roswell Rotary will continue to look for creative ways to partner with WellStar to help those in need suffering from numerous mental health issues.
You won’t want to miss our speaker this week when our very own Past President Steve Stroud gives us an update on all of the great new economic development plans happening in Roswell Georgia!
