Sharing a few more shots from last week’s Installation of Officers Luncheon. We are thankful for the leadership team who have stepped up to support President Pat!
One of our favorite traditions however is awarding Rotarian of the Year. It was a honor to recognize Bart Foster, a Rotarian who has quietly served as Sgt At Arms for SEVERAL decades.
Thirty years of service is a remarkable milestone in any role, but especially in one that is often carried out quietly, consistently, and without seeking recognition.
For three decades, our Sergeant-at-Arms has been the steady hand behind our meetings and events—arriving early, staying late, making sure and helping create the welcoming environment that allows our club to focus on service and fellowship. While the role may not always be in the spotlight, its impact is felt every single week.
Thirty years represents more than attendance. It represents reliability, commitment, and a genuine love for this club and its members. Bart has been a constant presence and familiar face who has helped preserve the traditions that make our club special.
On behalf of everyone whose Rotary experience has been made better because of Bart’s dedication, we thank you, sir. Thank you for your time, your dependability, your good humor, and your unwavering commitment over the past 30 years.
Please join us in congratulating and celebrating an extraordinary Rotarian whose service has left a lasting impact on our club. Here’s to 30 years of faithful service as Sergeant-at-Arms—and to the legacy of leadership, fellowship, and commitment you he has “fostered” in all of us.
