Hello Fellow Rotarians and Friends!

Wow, can you believe how quickly January has past?

We’re not letting the howling winds slow us down and we’re continuing our interviews with various Club members.

This week Rotary Roundabout features an interview with our past-president and 43-year perfect attender, Reece Jones.  I know you’re going to enjoy learning more about this dedicated and active Rotarian.

We also remind our club members of the upcoming February Fling on February 8th and our End Polio Now fundraiser on February 2nd.  

Thanks, too, for all of the wonderful words of encouragement and support for Rotary Roundabout.  I very much appreciate them!

Hello Fellow Rotarians and Friends!

Welcome to this first 2019 edition of Rotary Roundabout!

Last week we interviewed Rotarian Doug Lewis to kick off the 2019 half of the Rotary year.  This week we featured Hope Stone who is one of the recipients of the 2017 scholarships that we award to a graduating senior from each of Des Moines public high schools.
