Welcome Back, Friends!
As summer comes to a close, it was wonderful to see so many familiar faces at Rotary last week. We hope you all had a fantastic summer! Our guest speaker, Terry Lowe, the Director of Water Resources for the City of Buckeye, provided an insightful overview of the various entities responsible for water and wastewater services in our city. He discussed the regulatory and legal challenges related to water supply and emphasized that both the state and city are always planning with a 100-year horizon in mind. Terry also highlighted the impact of recent low snowpack years on the river's ability to meet water demands. He mentioned that most states in the Colorado River compact are actively working towards a solution. When asked about the desirability of continued growth, Terry suggested that this is a matter for elected policymakers to decide. Announcements Our newest member, Jamison Kaufman, revealed that she was exhibiting her art at the West Rose Tasting Room through the end of this month, highlighted by a happy hour from 5:00 to 7:00 pm on Friday, September 12, 2025. All members are encouraged to attend, enjoy a glass of wine, and view her works. President Holly reminded us of the club happy hour at Frys Wine Bar on Thursday, September 11 at 5:30. Casual and fun. Please drop in! Check the club calendar for upcoming community service projects and events. Did you know you can view the club calendar on this bulletin and also with the ClubRunner application?
