Bill Vespa - Rotarian of the Month (May)
Well deserved! 🙏 for exemplifying what it means to be a Rotarian 💗

Join us in celebrating Bill Vespa, District 5150’s May 2026 Rotarian of the Month! 🌟

A proud member of the Rotary Club of Novato since 1996, Bill exemplifies Service Above Self through nearly three decades of quiet leadership, dedication, and impact. From producing the club’s beloved Big Wheel newsletter to supporting countless print and communications needs, Bill has helped keep his club informed, connected, and thriving.

A Paul Harris Fellow, Foundation Benefactor, and Clark Palmer Fellow, Bill’s commitment to Rotary runs deep. Whether serving as Sergeant-at-Arms, supporting the Endowment Board, or stepping in wherever needed, he is known as someone who always shows up.

Dependable, humble, and generous with his time and talents, Bill represents the very best of Rotary—someone who knows his club, supports its mission, and strengthens it every day.

Thank you, Bill, for your lasting impact and dedication to service! 💙💛
