Message from the President

Let's Recognize our Fellow Buckhead Rotarians!

As we begin the new Rotary year, I'm excited to connect with you all in new and meaningful ways.  In my professional life as an executive coach, I often highlight the importance of recognition. With that in mind, I'm introducing two new awards to celebrate Rotarians who truly "unite for good" throughout the year. 

Please nominate fellow Rotarians who deserve a sincere thank you for their dedication, whether they've consistently shown up, lent a hand, or gone above and beyond. Simply send their name and a brief description of why you're nominating them to Jim Coleman at jcolemanoss72@gmail.com.  

The deadline for submission for the first set of awards is July 14th. 

Shelley Hammell

Buckhead Rotary President
