To all Rotary members I am delighted to pass on my warmest best wishes for a happy, prosperous and safe 2022.

I will resist my natural tendency to predict what this coming year is going to be like other than to say every year is different, and like the previous years, this one has already delivered unexpected challenges to us.  The experience of the past few weeks has demonstrated just how things can change swiftly and dampen rapidly our expectations.

What I can promise is that we will strive to continue delivering service to our community that meets genuine needs and responds to our community’s changing situation.  I am looking forward to continuing our Club's work on great projects and strengthening the club’s foundations for the next century of service and fellowship.  I hope you will share this commitment.
