Our club could not be more honored and proud to thank our immediate past president, Barbara Rudaevych for graciously leading out Rotary Club of Hatboro for not just the past year, but almost two full years! Barbara's enthusiasm and energy has brought such a special unity to our club and we cannot begin express how valuable her membership and commitment to our club has been.
Barbara has led several initiatives over her term as president that have positively impacted not only our club members, but our local community, our District 7430 along with internationally.
To name a few of Barabra's accomplishments as acting president of Hatboro Rotary, Barbara brought to our organization the international service project collecting items, preparing, packing and shipping Boodle Boxes to ship to overseas soldiers during the holidays to spread thanks and good cheer. Over the last few years our club members assemble these care packages with attention to detail and care to ensure our oversees soldiers are reminded how much we appreciate their hard work and sacrifices.
Barbara put forth incredible effort and her time to compile a procedure manual specific to Hatboro Rotary's Club. Her time and energy working alongside our club members to obtain our procedures was no small task. After receiving all of the individual procedures, Barabra compiled what is now an incredibly detailed live working copy of our procedures for our current and future club members.
The most recent impact Barbara has had on our club and our local Hatboro Community is the current project underway on York Road in Hatboro. Barbara put a lot of effort to bring to our community the Hatboro Bridge Mural on York Road near Concordence Ferments. There were detailed steps that had to be approved in order to make this happen and we are proud to announce that the bridge mural is currently underway and will be completed in the coming weeks. This mural not only represents our town's past, but excitement for what is ahead of us. The motto for the bridge mural is "Come for the past, stay for the future". Our club and community members could not be more excited for the beauty, history and education this mural possesses.
Thank you to our 2024-2026 club President Barbara Rudakevych for your efforts leading our organization these last two years, we are so grateful that you joined our club and all of the wonderful additions you have brought to each of us and our community!
