Rotary District 7190 Governor Bruce McConnelee spoke to the club on Thursday, accompanied by his wife Lorraine. He talked about efforts to bolster membership, including restarting Rotary in Troy, a club focused on veterans begun by Glenville Rotary, and another new club, Heartbeat online, which is affiliated with Niskayuna. He reminded us about an Oct. 29 meeting in Liverpool, near Syracuse, for World Polio Day, and the Nov. 18 Rotary Foundation dinner at Glen Sanders Mansion in Scotia. And he told a 1980s story about when he was a new Rotary member in Scotia, and helped put a Whipple bridge over Collins Creek.
Also Thursday, our member Bob Conner started his sixth year on a club Rotary project, working with the Shenendehowa School District on th
e Bountiful Backpacks program, delivering food to Chango Elementary in Malta.
