Since our charter in 1921, The Rotary Club of Annapolis has enjoyed a long history of community service. Our 100th Club Birthday was February 11, 2021. Our Club will be celebrating this momentous occasion on Saturday, September 25th at 6:00 p.m. at St. Mary’s in Annapolis. Over 140 members will join in commemoration, as we continue our dedication of the Four-Way Test: Is it the truth? Is it fair to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friendships? Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
My primary goal for this coming year, as we come off an unprecedented year of virtual meetings, is to reengage all members from our three groups: breakfast, lunch and happy hour. All members should not only consider participating in various committees, but also supporting your fellow Rotarians in Service Above Self. I look forward to Crabs to Go in August, Helping Hands in September, Black Tie and Diamond in March and many other quick impact projects and the ability to distribute varying grants throughout our community.
The Rotary Theme for 2021-2022 is SERVE TO CHANGE LIVES. I am honored to have been chosen for the President of The Rotary Club of Annapolis and I look forward to working with the Board and each member of our Club, both locally and internationally.
In Rotary Service,
Carolyn Richards
