Hard to believe it’s only 21 days until I hand the gavel over to President Ken! It’s been such a wonderful ride!
Thanks to Diana for teeing up my last 3 meetings! I hope you will join us for these important meetings!
Speaking of teeing up….don’t forget the golf invitation from President Ken for this Saturday as well as the invitation to sign up for the District installation dinner which is always a good time!
Cheers to Rotary!

Andover Rotary Well Represented at District Learning Assembly
Thank you President Elect Ken Feyl, Jean Leider, Ellen Lux, Gail Ralston, Al Ruthazer and Rich Rainville for attending last week's District Learning Assembly and proudly represented our club. The event provided valuable opportunities to learn about Rotary programs, leadership, membership growth, service projects, and best practices that help clubs thrive.
By investing their time in training and collaboration with fellow Rotarians from across the district, these members are helping bring new ideas and energy back to Andover Rotary. We appreciate their commitment to continuous learning and to strengthening our club's impact in the community. ________________
Due to a conflict for our regular Tuesday board meetings, the next board meeting will be:
Mon., June 15, 4:30 pm
Andover/N.A. YMCA

Calling all golfers! You do not need to be an Andover Rotarian to participate.
Andover Rotary is looking for a team of four golfers to compete in this Saturday’s indoor golf tournament at Matchplay Golf & Sports from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. By participating, you'll help position Andover Rotary as a beneficiary of Matchplay's charitable giving program this December.
We currently have one golfer committed and need at least three more players to complete the team. The first four golfers who sign up will play at no cost.
If you're interested, please contactKen Feylby Thursday, June 11.
We hope you'll join us for a fun morning of golf while supporting a great cause! __________________________
