News from the Club President

Fellow Rotarians,

We are halfway through this Rotary year. As we began 2024 we reexamined ourselves and began by developing our Vision and Mission statements. I think it appropriate to remind members of what was adopted by the club.

Bennington Rotary Vision Statement Our Club is dedicated to joyfully building friendships and having fun together while we actively create positive and lasting change in our community, ourselves and in the world.

Bennington Rotary Mission Statement Our Rotary Club will collaborate to provide sustainable, positive changes within the local and wider global community in the Rotary areas of focus. Adapting to changing circumstances, we will be guided by the Rotary core values of integrity, diversity, service, leadership, and fellowship.

We established working task force groups to address key aspects of our club and its future. Expect several emails in the coming weeks which will focus on how we can wrap up activities in January.

I am dismayed by the number of monthly tasks in the upcoming assignments section which need volunteers. That may be a clear sign that a fresh face or faces are needed for our club. That time is coming soon.

Yours in Service,
Mike Day
Club President
