2010 Shrimporee
Thank You Space Center Rotarians
"Space Center Rotarians, you deserve a standing ovation for the way you displayed the true spirit of Rotary at the Shrimporee. It was very pleasing to see all of you working together in harmony to conduct another successful Shrimporee! It should be mentioned is that your actions at the event set a great example for all of the student volunteers that helped with this year's event.
I sensed that they fully understood that the Rotarians and other volunteers' hard work translated to funds raised to support the service projects of our Rotary Club. This is a valuable lesson for teenagers to learn and I am proud you did such a good job of teaching it with your actions.
As for results, your hard work and good planning will result in about $65,000 to be used next year for both local and international service programs. As the next president, I will try to be a very good steward of those funds and work hard to see that they are used wisely and consistent with the Rotary Four-way Test.
Once again, my hat is off to you for all that you did to make the 2010 Shrimporee a success. It would not have been possible without your efforts."
