January 29th, 2014 Meeting - Welcome back!

Hello, everyone!
It's been a long time, but we are finally back in session! We had a meeting on January 29th to welcome the club back and go over the plan for the semester. The meeting began with a discussion about future e-board members. Our current president, vice president, secretary, and treasurer are all seniors, so the group will be going through a transition at the end of the semester. Several people expressed interest in taking over one of those positions.

Jenn announced to the club that our $1,000 donation to the Global Uganda project was sent.

Next we discussed upcoming events, including the Swimarathon and Dump 'n' Run. The Rotaractors who are available signed up for Swimarathon and agreed to hang posters around campus about the event. Dump 'n' Run will be covered in an upcoming meeting.

Another topic brought up was Adopt-a-Highway. Josh was contacted by someone from PennDot and was told that the section we originally thought was ours will be expanding. All Rotaractors agreed that this was a good thing and that we will plan a highway clean up day once the weather becomes warmer.

Have a great day! :)

Rotaract Highway Cleanup - October 12th, 2013

Hello, all!
On Saturday, October 12th, five members of the Rotaract club and Judy Hughes set out at 8am to clean up highway #173, otherwise known as Grove City Road. We cleaned from the intersection of Franklin Street and Grove City Road up to The Heights. We gathered twelve full bags of trash, making this a very successful morning! Josh Duman has been in contact with PennDOT about adopting this highway and we are hoping to have a sign erected recognizing our adoption of this area soon. We are all pleased with the outcome and agree that this is a project we would like to continue! Slippery Rock is a wonderful town that means so much to our club and we must work hard to keep it beautiful!

 Josh Duman, Terry Thompson, A.J. Pagano, Mariah Seymour, and Susan Dalessandro ready to clean!
