There is still real need for community volunteers during the pandemic. Rotarians can always be counted on to step up and lend a hand. 
Led by Sharon Niles and Kent Ostridge, our Rotary club is busy seeking areas where volunteers are needed. Some potential areas being explored include the Riverview Boys and Girls club recycle program (Nigel Bayliss on specific details), blood donation events, and preparing meals for families in need at Edith Cavell. Once specific events have been identified, Sharon and Kent will be letting our club know where and when to help out.
This initiative to communicate where the community need is will continue throughout the pandemic, so if any members have some free time, stay tuned! We have a chance to make a difference and enjoy some much needed fellowship while remaining in COVID safe environments.

Jennifer E. Jones, of the Rotary Club of Windsor-Roseland, Ontario, Canada, is the selection of the Nominating Committee for President of Rotary International for 2022-23.
Jennifer E. Jones, a member of the Rotary Club of Windsor-Roseland, Ontario, Canada, has been nominated to become Rotary International’s president for 2022-23, a groundbreaking selection that will make her the first woman to hold that office in the organization’s 115-year history.
Jones will officially become president-nominee on 1 October if no other candidates challenge her.
Jones says she sees Rotary’s Action Plan as a catalyst for increasing Rotary’s impact.
“As we reflect upon our new strategic priorities, we could have never envisioned that our ability to adapt would become our North Star during what is inarguably the most profound time in recent history,” Jones said in her vision statement. “Silver linings rise out of the most challenging circumstances. Using metric-driven goals, I will harness this historic landscape to innovate, educate, and communicate opportunities that reflect today’s reality.”
