OK, your neighborhood and mine don’t look exactly like this, but it’s a magical time of year, so suspend your disbelief for a while and enjoy the atmosphere.

The board of the Southern Rensselaer County Rotary Club extends best wishes for all Rotarians, family, friends and neighbors for this special season, one in which we can reflect on what we have done this year to make our community and our world better places for all.

Thank you for your efforts, your financial contributions, your energy and your ideas that make Rotary work. And, in this time of reflection, we also join together to look ahead to what more we can accomplish in the new year for the good of all.
