BERC Gear Up 2024!
We had a blast this week celebrating President Brett and all of his accomplishments during his two terms as President! As you can see, our decorations were on point thanks to the skilled hands and vision of Victoria and Aimee (the clandestine party planners). Brett was thoroughly surprised, as is the tradition of Gear Up, and enjoyed not only the golf theme, but also the opportunity to thank many of the board members who served with him and the membership at large.
For those who may not know, there is a tradition in Rotary Clubs to celebrate the exiting president, and welcome in the new leadership for the Rotary year ahead. We chose to name ours Gear Up as it is inspired by the cog of the Rotary logo, and it feels like we are getting ready to tackle the year ahead in the form of service projects, networking, fellowship, and making a positive impact in the community. Each year, we take the time to honor those who have dedicated so much of their time, talent, and treasure, and thank them for dedicating themselves to our club.
As a special guest, we had the amazing District Governor Elect join us for the celebration, and even caught her in a group photo with President Brett and President Elect Paul with one of our newly produced BERC flags that Brett handed out. It’s going to be a great year ahead and I can’t wait to see what we accomplish!
