"Make a new commitment -- beginning now,"
said our new club president, Shirleen Carter, executive director of the United Way Serving St. Tammany, shortly after being sworn in as president of the club by District Governor 6840 nominee Betty Gill.
Carol Wolfram of the St. Tammany bureau of The Times-Picayune reported, "The Future of Rotary Is In Your Hands" is the Rotary International theme for the year ahead and one that Carter embraces in her vision for the Rotary Club of Slidell. Her specific goals for 2009-10 include implementing a club leadership plan; supporting the Imagination Library project that provides a book each month to participating children, 5 and younger; spreading the message of Rotary; and further diversifying the membership of the Rotary Club of Slidell.
Carter has been a Rotarian since 2000 when she was sponsored by Slidell Councilwoman Marti Livaudais as a member of the Rotary Club of Slidell Northshore morning club. Carter extended special thanks to Neil Alford and Donald Bryan for their personal encouragement and their education in "what it truly means to be a Rotarian."
