The Changing of the Guard is a long standing tradition for the Parkville Rotary Club. This marks the changing of Rotary years from old to new (July 1) as well as installing new board members.
It is also a time to be thankful for all the previous years work of the Board and Club and also to look forward to their future accomplishments to come in 2024/2025. Congratulations to all! This past year has been great.
This event will be a potluck in the park. Meat and dessert will be provided by the club. Please bring friends, family, chairs, a side dish, and your drinks.
See you there!
