Last Week at Rotary
July 2, 2018 - Fred Ferrand at the helm

Fred Ferrand, our new 2018-2019 Sandy Springs Rotary Club president presented his plans and goals for the following year.

Fred emphasized our fundraiser on October 6 at City Springs. It will be held between 11:30 and 4:00. it will have an Oktoberfest theme. There we will feature our projects, schools, public safety officials and our sponsors. This should be our signature event.

Our meeting theme is make it fun, and they will come. Every greeter must tell a joke to start the meeting. The Club votes on the joke. If the joke is bad, the greeter has to put $5 in the pot.

Also announced is a reception for Distric Governor Court Dowis on Sunday, July 29, at a place to be determined. He will be visiting our club on The following day.
