A Mid-Year Report from President John

My Rotary year thus far has been very exciting and rewarding.  It is going by very quickly.  First, I was disappointed our Club was not able to participate in the Octagon Barn Amphitheater project as it has been delayed until 2017-2018 year. The YMCA garden renovation has also been delayed to next year. However, our Club will replace these two projects with the Rancho El Chorro Regional Educational Center Amphitheater and the Anderson Hotel Apartments for homeless seniors.  The Club will be sending some members to our Tepehua Community Center in Mexico in June.  I am still working on the District Grant for the elementary school in Morelia Mexico with that project finishing up later in 2017 or early 2018.  

We have had some very successful community events, an interesting vocational tour and have two more scheduled before year's end.  Our financial data has been consolidated, reported monthly and is current.  I can truly say that my Board of Directors is the best group I have ever worked with.  They challenge me and help me in so many ways.  Also, I'm grateful for all the help I have received from our Past Presidents and all the members of our Club. Thank you so much!
