On June 24, 2023, the Rotary Club of Warren County installed their new board for the Rotary year, starting July 2023-2024, and thanked our recent Past President Peggy Shrimpton for her dedication and service this past year. The room was packed with family, friends, and fellow Rotarians from all over!
Please watch this video to hear straight from our new president, Michael, as he looks forward to the new year ahead with enthusiasm and thanks! The evening was kicked off by passing the gavel, like in many other board installations. This moment is always full of fond memories and usually a chuckle or two!

“The Four-Way Test of the things we think, say or do.”
- Is it the truth?
- Is it fair to all concerned?
- Will it build goodwill and better friendships?
- Will it be beneficial to all concerned?
Finally, our meeting and the new board installation was wrapped up by a blessing from well loved Pastor Christy Goodwin. Stay tuned for more from the Rotary Club of Warren County 2023/2024 – A year to remember and “Create Hope in the World.”
