PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE OF FRANKLIN ROTARY

The Board has continued conversations around succession planning to ensure the long-term strength and leadership of our club. Franklin Rotary thrives when members step up, share ideas, and support one another.

We encourage members to consider taking on a leadership role, specifically Vice President. If you are interested in serving as President and are not currently on the Board, please contact Wendy Richardson to discuss a plan of action.

More information and opportunities to engage will be shared as these conversations continue.

With gratitude,

   Wendy
