Greetings Dunwoody! And thanks again for your commitment and support of all that we do. I wanted to share a couple of things with you:
I look forward to seeing you Friday - whether it's online or via Zoom - and at our service events as you feel you can join us.
Thanks for all you do!
President Ardy
This year we are moving to an online submission and judging platform, Submittable. Both School Level Judges and State Judges will participate via an online process. With this change, even more volunteers throughout the state can participate! Online training sessions for judges on how to navigate Submittable will begin in January. The judging process begins in February.
You may register via the VOLUNTEER tab at GeorgiaLawsOfLife.org OR complete a form available here. That form includes more information about School and State level training dates for those who will be judging.
The Rotary Club of Dunwoody is filled with people of action. We now know that Metro-Atlanta is a major human trafficking hub. Now, we are asking YOU to do something about it!
Our Club is part of The Atlanta Rotary Council Against Human Trafficking. We have partnered with the International Human Trafficking Institute (IHTI), the Rotary Action Group Against Slavery (RAGAS), and Human Traffic Proof GA. January is “End Human Trafficking” month. IHTI is offering two one-hour instructor-led, virtual training events multiple times to Rotarians over the next two weeks. Each has its own sign-in link ... click sign up for the sessions you wish to attend.

For those who are new to the Club or just coming out of social isolation due to the pandemic, Thirsty Thursday is an opportunity to socialize in a responsible fashion. It usually happens on the third Thursday of each month, but this month we gathered on the second Thursday.
A dozen folks braved what was expected to be chilly temperatures, gathering outdoors at The Dunwoody Tavern. People wore masks when not drinking/eating, but still managed to catch up on what is going on in each other's lives. Jud Shumway (Jennifer's fiancée) supplied great music, while conversations raged. With two fire pits and a space heater, the temperature turned out not to be an issue.
Plan to join us on third Thursday in February - February 18 - on the patio at The Dunwoody Tavern from 5:30 PM to 7 PM.
