Greeley Centennial Rotary Gives You Two Meeting Options

Centennial Lunch Bunch
2nd and 4th Thursdays at Noon

The Centennial Rotary Lunch Bunch loves getting together twice a month. We get to learn about our community and beyond through great presentations.

Through the work of our World and Community Service Committee we are able to do good in our area and around the world. Much of our work locally focuses on students through scholarships, leadership programs and the Poudre Learning Center. Visit us to learn more!

Centennial Satellite Group
1st and 3rd Wednesday Evenings

Centennial's “satellite or companion” group was founded in 2018 to allow members, who couldn’t make the lunch meetings, an option to stay involved.

The satellite meets twice a month (1^st and 3^rd Wednesdays) at 5 PM. Mirroring the origins of Rotary, they “rotate” or meet at different locations each time they get together. With more informal meetings, this group has pursued hands-on service to our local community.

1 - 50th Anniversary - Save the Date, You've Got to Be There!

We finally have our date and venue for the upcoming 50th Centennial Rotary Anniversary. Yes - we will gather on Thursday, April 30 to celebrate 50 years of fellowship, service, and learning in Greeley. We will meet in the beautiful Fiesta Mansion Event Center, just north of UCCC in downtown Greeley. We want to have as many members in attendance as possible. Watch for more information and your invitation - coming soon!

2 - Serving our Community

Once again, Centennial Rotary members will meet at Weld Food Bank at 5:00 PM tonight to pack food for those who are food insecure in our community. Satellite Group members always lead the way, but they can always use help from Thursday group members. Let Reilly Granberg know you plan to attend so he can confirm with the WFB volunteer coordinator.

3 - ClubRunner Changes

ClubRunner, host of our web and club data services, is beefing up their security, so the next time you try to log in to your Centennial Rotary (ClubRunner) account, you will probably get one of two messages.

First, ClubRunner may decide that your password is not sufficiently secure and require you to reset your password. Many of us are using a simple password that we were given when you were first added to ClubRunner. When you get this message, ClubRunner will send a link to your preferred email in your Rotary account. Follow the instructions and it should be pretty easy to reset. If you have problems, you can contact Jacqueline Tiley or Karoline Woodruff for assistance.

Second, ClubRunner has begun requiring two-factor authentication upon login. They will send a code to your preferred email and expect you to type that code into the login box. If you log into ClubRunner frequently, watch for a box that says “Remember this device.” Once you check the box, you won’t have to go through two-factor authentication as often.

January 22 Program - Greeley Creative Arts Center

Longtime Greeley leader, Becky Safarik, joined us to share information on the Greeley Creative Arts Center. Becky is currently serving on the board of the Greeley Creative Arts District, so she was able to give us up-to-the-minute info on the Grand Opening of the Center. The district had been wishing for a space to offer classes, studio space, and other resources for the creative arts. When Allnut Funeral Services moved out of their historic building in downtown Greeley, the district was able to access the vacant building and utilize historic designation grants to develop the Center. The first phase of the Center will have its grand opening celebration on Saturday, January 31 from noon to 3:00 PM. Becky shared plans for expansion of the center into other sections of the large building and invited everyone to come down for the open house.
