June 30 is a specially significant date for the Southern Rensselaer County Rotary Club. That’s the time set aside for the annual “Presidential Changeover,” which this year will have a few added touches.

Terry Brewer will complete his presidency by distributing year-end awards and celebrating the efforts and accomplishments of the club during the 2015-16 Rotary Year before handing over the reins to Debbie Rodriguez.

“We would like all club members to attend this meeting, and bring family and friends to celebrate Rotary,” says Terry. “I am requesting that everyone make this a priority meeting so that our full membership of 45 Rotarians meets and celebrates the end of the year and the beginning of a new Rotary year together.”

Murray and Maggie Forth will be hosting the event at their East Greenbush residence, beginning at 5:45 p.m. that Thursday. We will have more information on the June 30 meeting coming to you in the near future.
