President's Message
Sprucing up Roswell
A special thanks to Leslie Bassett and Harvey Smith for organizing construction of ten picnic tables. With a little elbow grease and strong backs, the tables are assembled and ready to be delivered for painting. Each table will be themed especially for the recipient and will have the Rotary logo and of course, our famous parrot. What a fun way to engage our club and the community while sharing the Rotary message!
