February 1 Meeting Highlights

We met again on Wednesday, February 1, 2017, in the Pittsford Community Library for breakfast and fellowship.
 
FYI, if Pittsford Schools close or delay Wednesday morning due to weather conditions, we do not meet.   
 
Kevin O’Grady talked us about the benefits of being an annual club member sponsor from January 1 through December 31.  Pres. Matt was a “Ruby” level club sponsor in 2016 and will be once again this year.  Do consider a club sponsorship at a level that is right for you.

 

Today's guests were Rotarian Rachel Baker August, of the Rotary Club of Rochester, and former Pittsford Rotarian Colleen Farley.

Of course, tickets are on sale for the March 13 “Taste of Pittsford” at Nazareth College.  There continues to be a lot happening behind the scenes in preparation for this annual gala event thanks to Jim Murphy and his team.  Please continue to sell tickets.

In fact, some Rotarians already brought in a bottle of wine or two for several baskets that we can create to be auctioned off at The Taste.
