President Nancy's Message


Thank You, Gregor, for an Impactful Mental Health Presentation

A heartfelt thank you to Gregor for his powerful and insightful presentation on mental health at this week’s meeting. Your willingness to share personal experiences and shine a light on such an important topic made a meaningful impact on our club. Your message emphasized the importance of removing the stigma surrounding mental health, encouraging open conversations, and supporting one another with compassion and understanding.

We appreciate your vulnerability, your strength, and your commitment to making mental health a priority in our community. Your presentation reminded us all that it’s okay to not be okay—and that we are never alone.

Don’t Miss Thursday’s Meeting – A Celebration of Service and Impact

This Thursday’s meeting promises to be one of the most inspiring of the year—and we want you in the room to feel the vibe and celebrate with us!

We will proudly present the first-ever Patsy Wolff Scholarship, honoring the legacy of long-time member and friend Patsy Wolff. This special award will be presented by her husband and Roswell Rotarian Bill, and it’s sure to be a meaningful and emotional moment.

And that’s not all—charity checks will be awarded to several of the local organizations we’ve supported this year, showing once again how Roswell Rotary puts Service Above Self into action.

This meeting is a true celebration of generosity, legacy, and the power of community. Come vibe with us—Thursday at lunch!

Every need is unique, and Giving Grace is there to meet people where they are. Now it’s our turn to give back!

Come out for a Thirsty Thursday full of laughs, community, and purpose — and help make a difference, one punchline at a time!
