Patrick Sullivan has accepted the Rotary Club leadership role for the 2023-24 fiscal year. He held this same position 30 years ago. Sullivan’s extensive knowledge and experience with community involvement, and management will be beneficial for the club’s community initiatives.
The Rotary Club is an international organization with 1.4 million members in nearly every country in the world. It is a coed, nonprofit and non-denominational club with the mission to provide service to others, promote integrity, and advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through fellowship of business, professional and community leaders.
The Simsbury/Granby Club is active in Granby with college and trade school scholarships. It is the lead partner for Rotary Park Playground on Iron Horse Boulevard in Simsbury and has supported Holcomb Farm, Food Share, food banks, pollinator gardens, Greenway Trail Maintenance, Simsbury Ambulance, Medical Closet, and many other organizations.
The Rotary Club meets weekly on Thursdays, mornings except for the last Thursday of the month being an evening gathering, at rotating restaurants in Granby and Simsbury.
The club’s priority this year is to expand its commitment to the Granby community—it is seeking new members and planning new projects to make a lasting difference. To learn more, contact Sullivan at c21sullivan@comcast.net or simburygranbyrotary.org
