Welcome to Freedom Rotary!

Hello and welcome to Freedom Rotary. My name is Trina and I am Freedom Rotary’s President in our year to Imagine Rotary. I have been an active member of our Freedom club since 2007. It has been my pleasure serving our community and am honored to be the Club’s President for the second go of it.
We have many things in store for this next year after our Past President, Jeannie Kegebein has done a wonderful job in bringing new members into our club and has help to create a welcoming and lively atmosphere to engage with our members, families and guests this past year.

Our club will be involved in a couple international project. Summer 2022 I will be delivering wheelchairs in Mexico City along with 40 other Rotarians. This coming January, we will be in Guatemala helping our Santa Cruz clubs with their water projects to ensure healthy water for rural communities. We will also be investing in Shelter Boxes for Ukrainian refugees.
We will have many local hands-on projects in collaboration with our not-for-profit partners starting with a backpack give away with Salvation Army in our downtown plaza, a play structure installment for Pajaro Valley Women’s Shelter, a mural and clean up in Flodberg park, providing meals at Loaves and Fishes as well as many other projects this upcoming year.
Please reach out to me as I extend an invitation for you to join our lunch or dinner vibrant discussions. We have dinner at El Vaquero Winery on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of the month at 5:15 and lunch is served at 12:15 in the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds Ag History Museum.

I will conclude that in the fashion of Freedom Rotarianism, we abide by the four-way pop quiz

• Is it awesome and did we all have a great time?
• Were we inclusive to have others join in and be co-conspirators?
• Did we rub elbows and grease the wheels to make things happen?
• Did we all wake up the next morning and remember what we can all brag about?

Thank you,

Trina
