The Rotary Club of Denville

The Rotary Club of Denville  April 13,
2007    My Fellow Rotarians,   One of the most
valuable lessons I learned as an educator speaks
to the incredible power of teamwork. Without it,
systems do very little. With it, there are very
few things we cannot achieve.   As the beginning
of a new year in Rotary rapidly approaches, I ask
for a few minutes of your time. Collective wisdom
is a gift and I hope to tap into that as your
incoming President, working in tandem with your
Executive Board and sustaining a team approach in
Denville Rotary.   Toward that end, I would like
to seek your input and your insights to help
inform both the incoming Executive Board and
myself as we begin to frame the 2007-2008 Rotary
year. To accomplish that, may I respectfully
request your responses to the enclosed
Collaborative Planning Guide.   It is our
intention to take all opinions and ideas
seriously as we approach our year in office. Your
input is valuable so we look forward to hearing
all thoughts and suggestions. Would you kindly
respond by Thursday, April 26th to help
facilitate sound planning. I appreciate your time
and, as always, value your support.   Good
actions ennoble us, and we are the sons of our
own deeds. Cervantes   May your first
actions in a new Rotary year be your contribution
to our collective voice!  Sincerely, Tony
Toriello President-Elect, 2007-2008

In Closing We can either make a living or we
can design a life. Jim Robin I ask you to join
me in choosing the latter so that we not only
build Rotary, but enrich it by the way we live.
