President Alex's Message
Fellow Rotarians - Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families! I hope that everyone has the opportunity to pause and give thanks as well as celebrate with their loved ones. As a reminder, we do not have a Rotary Meeting this Thursday. But as always with Roswell Rotary, just because we do not have a formal meeting, that does not mean our Club is not busy working to do good. In fact, this past weekend through Tuesday, November 21st, our Club’s Basketball Tournament is in full swing to raise money for our Veteran Initiatives. Please contact Lynne Lyndsay if you can volunteer and thank you for those who have or have already signed up. I am excited to hand out the trophy this Tuesday! This Friday, November 24th marks the opening of our Christkindl Market at Bulloch Hall! All Rotarians are invited to attend the Grand Opening at 5pm. In fact, WE NEED YOUR HELP! This is also your opportunity to be in a TV commercial to show off our Christkindl Market which helps raise money for Roswell Rotary and Friends of Bulloch. So all of you that are looking to make your big break in the entertainment industry, please come! The commercial will be shot at 5 pm on the 24th and includes the traditional Tapping of the Keg - the Mayor, Bob, Marcel, and I will do it together thanks to a special beer keg courtesy of Michael Curling and Variant. We are encouraging everyone to please come and bring friends and family so we have a full house and backdrop. Our friends at Safe America Foundation are shooting the commercial and assisting to promote the Christmas Market - including on social media, YouTube, Hulu, and other outlets. Additionally, Saturday morning, November 25th, the City is shooting their TV and internet commercial for the Market. Both spots are slated to be 30-second commercials when finished. It is important to spread the word about the Christkindl Market as early as possible throughout your networks as this is a major fundraising initiative for our Club and we hope that it will become a holiday tradition for years to come and we can grow on a great foundation. So everyone, please spread the news and encourage your friends, family, neighbors, and congregations to please attend between November 24 and December 24th. Additionally, there will be Santa on multiple days, so you can not only find out who has been naughty or nice, but you can also have your children’s photos taken with him and skip the awkward mall lines. We will reconvene our Thursday lunch meeting on November 30th with the Czech Republic’s Honorary Counsel, Monika Vintrlikova. She is a personal friend, delegate, and international business woman in the auto manufacturing industry. I am excited to hear her message! Happy Thanksgiving!
