I am honored and excited to step into the role of President for this upcoming year. Rotary has always been about service, connection, and making a lasting impact, and I look forward to leading our club as we continue to grow and strengthen our community.

Together, we will build on the incredible work already done, bringing fresh ideas and energy to our projects and initiatives. I encourage each of you to stay engaged, share your thoughts, and contribute your talents as we work towards our shared goals.

Let’s make this a year of meaningful service, fellowship, and positive change. I look forward to working alongside each of you to make a difference!

Yours in Service,

Michael Kelley
