Rotary Shares

2007-2008 President

Dear Brother and Sister New London Rotarians, it is with great pride that I assume presidency of our club. I look forward to us contining the club efforts such as the Winter Sand Bucket Project, Hospice Tree of Life Day, Group Study Exchange participation, Student of the Year recognitions, volunteering at the Community Meal Center, Rotary Foundation giving and the many other things our club is known for.

As President I will try to take the quality aspects of all the other presidents that came before me and incorporate that into my role as leader of the club. During the 07-08 year I will regularly encourage members to get their families involved in club activities and events and for club members to try a club activity they have not yet experienced.

As President I will try to be open to new ideas and suggestions. I truly believe our club's size and strength is a direct result of our diversity, with such diversity comes a wide range opinions and styles "it's all good". We are not the largest club in the district by accident. In the near furure I look forward to explaining the signature projects and goals I would like to see our club involved in this year.

A great New London Rotarian once told me just weeks after I joined the club " In this club your known and respected for what you do for the club, not by the title you carry or position you hold." .... very true Harold.

With the strong Board of Directors for 07-08 and your support and effort this will be a great Rotary year !

Yours in Rotary,

Bill

William Edwards Sr.
