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 Lynne Lindsey and all news should be directed to her at lynnehlindsay@outlook.com

President's Message

Taking the slide

Congratulations to our newest member of the Heavy Hitters Club, Alisia Booth!   She is relatively new to Roswell Rotary but yet she is always there to help when needed.   And that smile is contagious!   Thank you Alicia!

This last week we had a small group of Rotarians tour the Ron Clark Academy.   Ron has spoke at our club many times but you cant get the total impact of his school until you tour the facility and see Ron and his staff in action.  I can only hope that some of our local schools are willing to take the risk and make some form of alterations to the way we teach and engage with our students of Roswell.  At the end of the tour, you can return to the vestibule by way of the stairs or by way of the slide, with the slide representing taking a different rout with an element of risk.  Rotarians took the slide!   

Read my mind!
Mark Johnson- Rotarian & Mentalist & Psychic- Speaker for Jan. 20th meeting

A fellow Rotarian

Mark Johnson is the immediate past president of the Buckhead Rotary Club. He has been a member since 2001 and is a Paul Harris Fellow.

 It's Magic!

He is a nationally known mentalist and psychic entertainer who has performed all over the United States. He is a member of the Psychic Entertainers Association and the International Brotherhood of Magicians. He performs his unique show for corporate events, private parties, and more. He has also presented  his program to countless Rotary Clubs.

His Family

He is a native of Atlanta — four generations — and he and his wife, Rebecca, live in Smyrna with a Great Pyrenees dog who is still trying to figure out how she ended up in Cobb County.”

The Program

When asked to describe his program in three words, Mark said:  "Impossible to explain." Don't miss this fascinating meeting. 

If you can't be 'in person' for lunch
Zoomit, Maskit or Live - Join Us Thursday from Where Ever You Are

Zoomit, Maskit or Live, we are here for you! Roswell Rotary wants to make our meetings safe, available, convenient, and comfortable to all members and guest. So, if you feel comfortable with a mask or no mask, live or on zoom join is in any way that makes you feel comfortable and safe. 


If Zoom is more your style, we are going to have Zoom open for those who prefer to be in the comfort of their own home, office, or beach for that matter! Here is the link…………https://us06web.zoom.us/j/86497139508?pwd=QTBETGdwdjVrUjlCejBabWJ4eG55QT09

Business networking Rotary-style continues on Tue, Jan 18 6:30pm (and Tue Feb 15)
Smarter Business Development When It's with Fellow Rotarians (multi-club event)

This is an opportunity for you or someone on your staff, or someone you are interested in recruiting to Roswell Rotary.

Our last gathering again drew a crowd from the Atlanta Metro, Dunwoody, Peachtree City, Roswell, Sandy Springs and Tucker clubs. While it had similarities to other networking events, you knew that attendees honored the integrity of the 4 Way Test!

This is what Paul Harris formed Rotary for 1905. Professionals with diverse backgrounds could exchange ideas, form meaningful, lifelong friendships, and conduct business together. Paul Harris was networking well before the term “networking” was used to describe connecting people in order to build a business network.  

While Rotary is about "Service Above Self," there is a growing place for networking in Rotary, particularly for those responsible for generating revenue.

The next event moves to a new location for 2022:  

                Red Pepper Taqueria   4555 Ashford Dunwoody Rd, Dunwoody, GA 30346, one block NE of Perimeter Mall

Please plan to join us on Tue, Jan 18 from 6:30 - 8:00pm. For more information, please contact Hal Schlenger HSchlenger@GreatSouthBenefits.com | (770-335-0077), or Johnathan Clark of the Tucker Club (johnathanmclark@gmail.com | 404.512.6058)
