Co-PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE FOR ROTARY 

“Imagine, a world that deserves our best where we get up each day knowing that we can make a difference.” ~ 2022-23 Rotary International President Jennifer Jones
 
Rotary International President Jennifer Jones imagines a Rotary where members act to make their dreams become reality and they make the most of their club experiences. She urges members to engage more with each other and use these connections to build partnerships that change the world.
 
On the local level, we are proud to serve as the Rotary Club of Walnut Grove’s Co-presidents for the 2022-23 year! We share the belief that Rotarians make a difference in our local community and in our world through service projects and other activities. We fully support and plan to continue our traditional local events such as the speech contest, scholarship awards, pumpkin contest, community clean-up, dictionary give-away, and more! Additionally, we intend to support local students through a renewed mentorship program at local schools.
 
As we celebrate our 75 th year of “Service Above Self” in the Rotary Club of Walnut Grove, we are grateful for the faith placed in us by our fellow Rotarians. We are thankful for the opportunity to “Imagine Rotary” in traditional and new ways as we serve the local community!
