Eastwood Rotary was proud to welcome Emily Essi Bersani, our County Clerk. She highlighted some services that are not generally known to the public.

This week our own Dr. Rick Wright gave us a lesson in Black History Month, about Syracuse’s history concerning the “Underground Railroad”.

Last Tuesday EW Rotary was proud to host Sara Tucker, Executive Director of “Friends of the Central Library”. We were honored to have her and to learn about the extraordinary initiatives they have for the community.

A huge thank you to our keynote speaker, John Hall, from Honor Flight. If you’re not familiar with this great organization, their mission is to honor American veterans by transporting them to Washington, D.C., to visit the national memorials dedicated to their service and sacrifice.

Their 23rd mission is coming up this Saturday!

Honor Flights Syracuse serves 8 counties in Central New York and coordinates flights for 80 veterans, twice per year.
