On the last Wednesday of June, 2023, the Elmbrook Rotary Club (ERC) met at the Elm Grove Woman's Club. As the club does the last Wednesday of every June, we celebrated the closing of the 2022/2023 Rotary year, and welcomed the 2023/2024 year.
We heard from exiting President Harry Farchmin about our effectiveness in updating our club's bi-laws and addressing venue challenges throughout the year. Harry is proud to have moved our club forward as he served as our President. We also heard from our incoming President Chris Spresser and her intentions to focus on fun, mentorship, and having a club of Rotarians, not just people signed up for Rotary.
We'd also like to welcome...
Dr. Thomas Steinbach to the Vice President role, Dr. David Engle as Secretary, & Bill Petterson as Sargent at Arms. Other members moving into leadership roles are Lydia Miller & Mark Zalewski as the 2026 Class of Board Members, and Charley Shirley as Past President Member of the Board. John Allen will serve as Foundation Treasurer while Mark Zalewski handles Club Treasurer.
A thank you to Jackson Bubolz who is rolling off the Board of Directors as the class of 2023 and Harry Farchmin as he completes his time as our 2022/2023 President.
Thank you everyone for stepping up to fulfill the roles that allow our club to operate so well. Good luck to all of you, and may the 4 Way Test assist you in leading our club build goodwill, better friendships, and a better world.
Rotary is consistently meeting with people considering becoming a Rotarian. If you're curious about what being in a club like this is like, or if you know someone you feel would be a good fit, please connect them with us.
