Our Breakfast of Champions Honoring
Those Who Serve Marblehead's Senior Citizens
was a resounding success!
There were so many wonderful guests who expressed their sincere gratitude for this special show of appreciation for their important work.
Our guests also were grateful for the opportunity to meet other professionals and volunteers they didn't already know.
It was a very impressive gathering!
We hope all our members had a genuinely good feeling about this event.
And, let's be sure to recognize the bounty of food on the buffet!
There seems to be genuine interest in pursuing the plan for a summer Breakfast of Champions to honor Town departments.
Date and details to be determined.
Again, thank you, Tricia, for bringing the need for greater recognition to our attention and to our calendar. And thank you to all the members who have supported the Breakfasts so generously!
We do know how to put on a party!

any Rotarian or member of the community.

or the equivalent number of Foundation points
in the recipient's honor
and in recognition of their exceptional "Service Beyond Self."
This year, the club will be presenting one PHF.
