2 graduates among our contingent at RLI

RLI C — Doris and Dean Calamaras are the latest SRC members to graduate from the three-level Rotary Leadership Institute course. Here they are with their certificates and District Governor Fred Daniels (left) and RLI local coordinator Bill Nathan (second from right).

The Southern Rensselaer County club was well represented at Saturday’s Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) workshops held on the UAlbany Health Sciences Campus.

Leading the 10-person contingent, believed to be the largest-ever from SRC in one year, were Doris and Dean Calamaras, who both graduated from the three-level RLI curriculum that takes three or more years to complete. Last year, Bill Dowd and Debbie Rodriguez graduated, giving SRC four grads in just two years.

Also participating at Levels 1 and 2 on Saturday were Roberto Martinez, Jim Butterworth, Jim Leyhane, Murray Forth, Terry Brewer, Andy Leyhane, Kevin Leyhane, and Ray Hannan.
