What a week for Andover Rotary. We continue to volunteer, meet, share fellowship, doing good while having fun and gathering after hours!
Special shout out to Karla Rossi and her Executive Chef Victor Casado along with her fabulous and friendly staff at Stone Hill for an amazing evening under the stars and big tent last Friday night! It was great to see so many members and families join us.
It’s looking like almost sock weather this coming Friday….so don’t forget to wear your crazy., funny, wacky socks for the First Friday sock challenge! Phil and Jim – I am counting on you!
Look forward to seeing you on Friday at the Lanam Club.

Paul Harris Plus One
Congratulations to Joel Leider for receiving his Paul Harris "plus one".
What is a "plus one"?
When one receives their first Paul Harris Fellow recognition from Rotary International, it honors their contribution to Rotary’s mission of service and peace. If they continue to support Rotary and earn additional recognitions, each one is marked with a “+” followed by the number of additional contributions. So a “Paul Harris +1” means they’ve received this honor twice — once initially, and once again for continued generosity and commitment.
Next Board Meeting
Tuesday, October 21st
4:30 pm | Andover/No. Andover YMCA
