I hope everyone had a restful and happy summer! According to the weather report, today is the first day of Fall and I think we are off to a great start with all our teams getting filled out and projects well underway. I am personally looking forward to starting on a new Habitat for Humanity house here in Bedford and I appreciate Lita for taking the lead. I'm also grateful to Tom Pinney for leading Bedford Day which is right around the corner. I hope everyone will sign up to work at least one shift at one of our biggest opportunities to showcase all the great things our Club is doing for the community.. Finally, I hope to see many of you at Verrill Farms on September 12 at our joint meeting with the Concord Club for the District Governor's visit. Thanks for all you continue to do to make our club one of the best in the District.

Bedford Day is Coming!

Bedford Day 2024 is on Saturday, September 21. We will have two booths together; one to showcase Rotary projects including Interact and the other selling pizza from Ken’s Deli (Thanks Marc!), drinks and snacks.

A Volunteer Sign-Up Genius will be coming soon! We will need volunteers for both booths to help with set-up (8am-10am starting at the storage area at 7:30am), during the Fair (10am-2pm) and take-down (2pm until finished with delivery back to the storage area). 

Please reach out to Tom Pinney with any questions.

She's Back!

Melinda Gladden, a long-time former member, has returned to the Rotary Club of Bedford.

After a four-year absence, Melinda returned to being a Bedford Rotarian at the club’s monthly First Tuesday Meeting. August’s evening semi-social, semi-business get-together of members and guests was at The Great Wall restaurant in Bedford.

Rotary 2024-25 Club Co-Presidents Al Roscoe and Ralph Hammond officiated Melinda’s induction as an audience of 17 attending club members looked on.
