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 John's Message
Our Past President moment this week will feature PP Dave Schmit. It’s appropriate we learn about Dave’s year on the same day we have our Interact Clubs join us at Roswell Rotary.
Many years ago, Dave came up with the concept of Progressive
Interact. We had Interact at Roswell High School, but who ever thought we
should include our middle and elementary schools. Fast forward
after more than 10 years and we have clubs in most of the Roswell High School
cluster of elementary and middle schools. And we also sponsor and support
Interact Clubs at the Cottage School, Blessed Trinity, Fellowship, and
Independence High Schools.
For several years, Michael Schoppenhorst has been our Interact
chair for the club, helping with organizing clubs, working with club teacher
advisors, and recruiting club members as liaisons. We owe a huge debt of
thanks to Michael for all his efforts.
You don’t want to miss one of the best meetings of the year when
we hear what our Interact Clubs accomplished during this school year.
Spring Interact Report
Program this Week: Michael Schoppenhorst and Project Updates
(Picture above is Michael Schoppenhorst with his son Andrew) Interesting story-Michael was introduced to Roswell Rotary through Andrew’s involvement in the Elkins Middle Interact Club! And the rest is history!!
The Spring Interact Meeting is always a rewarding Rotary meeting. We get to hear the projects our Interact Clubs completed through the school year. What an inspiration. Additionally, we will be hearing from Interact Coordinator, Michael Schoppenhorst, as he hands over his reins to Bill Hoban after 5 years in this role. He will talk about how decisions do impact your whole life and directly impact both those you know and don’t know. He is also going to showcase some of his “high impact”
Rotarians. See you Thursday.
Past President Moment
Dave Schmit - 2013-2014
The District Governor Blake McBurney’s theme for 2013-14 was
Indiana Blake and the Crusade. Our own intrepid leader “Indiana” Dave led
Roswell Rotary on expeditions to expand Interact in our schools, endow our Roswell
Rotary Foundation for future generations, and even improve how we served
lunch. We capped the year off with the all-time largest scrapbook cover -
the Ark of the Covenant. Unfortunately, the Ark is now lost in some vast
warehouse or other resting place, but come check out Dave’s scrapbook on the
big screen before the meeting and hear what Roswell Rotary did in the Rotary
year 2013-14.
