A Message from our President, Jeff Dankenbring |
|
In Scotland, we have a saying that I’m fond of quoting: “We must look beyond our own village pump.” It means that we must look beyond our own home and our own community. We must be aware that ours is only one community, of one country, of the many communities and countries in this world. In every one of those communities, there is work to be done. As Rotarians, we will not stand idly by. As Rotarians, we will accept our responsibility. We can, and we must. For we know that Rotary is only as great as its clubs – and our clubs are only as great as the members within them. Rotary International President John Kenny Falkirk, Scotland |

"Marysville Rotary is again in position for another Successful year. This year our club will contribute an additional $2000 toward Polio Plus in a Rotary International fight to eradicate Polio from the earth once and for all. Locally we will sponsor the Toys 4 Tots program as we've done in the past and we're working toward starting a new program called the "Rotary Ride Home" that will offer rides throughout the evening on New Years Eve and heighten awareness of the dangers of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. We will do this in conjunction with the MHS Student Against Drunk Driving chapter and several local businesses. I'm excited for the opportunity to continue the successes of our past presidents as we take Marysville Rotary Club into 2011." Jeff |
