Thanks to all who came to our Club Installation Dinner on June 19. Our featured speaker was Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan who spoke on the opioid crisis. She has been on the forefront of innovative initiatives to respond to this growing problem. Pictured here is District Governor Dave Gardner who presented her with a Paul Harris Fellow for her work in this field. David has made this a priority and has developed a Rotary program. He presented at the Rotary International Convention in Toronto this past week.
Installed were our new slate of Officers and Directors: President Tim Kelley, President Elect Mike Collins, Past President Brian Snell, Treasurer Ed Sartell, Secretary David Traniello, Board Members, Mark Beckley, Michael Bonsey, Bobbie Botticelli, John Douglass, Gregg Johnson and KC Latham.
Among those also honored at the event with Paul Harris Fellow Awards were: Ron Winslow, Troy DiNapoli, Chris and Laura Wilson (presented on behalf of Chris' father Philip WIlson).
A highlight was having Linda and Tricia Snell attend on behalf of Brian, who was in the hospital. The great news on this front is that Brian has been released and is now home. Congratulations, Brian.
I want to take this opportunity to sincerely and heartily thank all our Club Members, family and friends who have been so wonderful during this transition, including Brian's health scare. I feel very supported by this Club and am looking forward to a fun-filled and productive year.
