Time flies! With just weeks left in my year as Governor, it seems impossible that this experience is almost over. That said, I need to share some reflections and express some gratitude. From my perspective, there are several high points. First and foremost, I truly appreciate the welcomes I received (with Marta in some cases) as I as I made my club visits
The Illinois Quad Cities Rotary Club gathered at the Hauberg Estate on April 26th for phase one of our pollinator garden collaboration. We moved plantings to more suitable areas, dug LOTS of holes and trenching, wheel barreled hundreds of pounds of plantings, and enjoyed a beautiful Saturday morning outside. New seeding of the pollinators will be done as spring weather allows.
The Rotary Club of Pecatonica was thrilled and honored to be part of Pecatonica‘s 155th Memorial Day parade! It is the second largest in the state and the largest in northern Illinois.
For the fourth year in a row, the Rotary Club of Pecatonica has been able to award four $1000 scholarships to Pecatonica high school seniors. Pictured here are club member of Mary Osborn, and scholarship recipients, Brylee Knutti, Emma, Daly, Anna, Munson, and Brooklyn Connell. Congratulations to these four outstanding ladies!
