Strategic Planning Kicks Off with Energizing SWOT Session
Our Rotary Club recently launched the first phase of our strategic planning journey with a dynamic SWOT Analysis session - and the energy in the room was palpable! Members rotated through four themed tables, focused on Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. This interactive format sparked lively conversations and idea-sharing, with everyone contributing insights from different perspectives.
This session marked the beginning of our collective effort to shape the future of our club with intention and clarity. Thank you to everyone who participated with such enthusiasm and thoughtfulness. Your voices are helping to lay the foundation for a strategic plan that reflects who we are and where we’re headed.
Stay tuned for updates as we continue this exciting journey together!
On a bright and sunny Wednesday, June 4, Marshfield Rotary Club members teamed up for the annual Adopt-A-Highway cleanup along Hwy 10. Armed with gloves, bright vests, and a commitment to service, the crew—John Baur, Tania Meyer, John Richmond, Lisa Richmond, John Wing, and Dale Smith—embraced the outdoors, clearing debris and leaving the roadway better than they found it. It wasn't just about picking up litter—it was about camaraderie, teamwork, and demonstrating Rotary’s enduring dedication to service above self.
After their work was done, the group made their way to Nutz Deep II, where Diane Meissner joined in the well-earned celebration of fellowship. Over good food and laughter, they reflected on the day’s efforts—not only the trash they collected but the connections they strengthened. The cleanup wasn’t just about beautifying the road; it was about reaffirming their shared mission to leave the world a little better than they found it.
