“The trouble,” they say, “with learning from experience, is that the tests always come before the lessons!” For those of you who have had the opportunity to serve as a Rotary club president, this little bit of wisdom must really ring true. Nonetheless, I want to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed this past Rotary year. If I had known a year ago what I’ve learned since then, the year might have been very different. One thing I would not have changed, however, is the good company and camaraderie that I have enjoyed each time we July 11, 12: Relay for Life @ Campbell Community Center July 13: Dinner Service @ EHC July 18: President’s Debunking, @ Mama Mia’s

come together here at EMQ or on location at a fund raiser, social or community service event.

The other thing that “they” say, is “Rotary happens at the club level.” That is certainly true for the Rotary Club of Campbell. Although I will spell out in more detail our shared accomplishments at the debunking, I want to thank each and every one of you for your many contributions: ideas, efforts, work, time, money, food and friendship that continue to make our club a very special place to be. Thanks a million!
