Rotary Club of St. Maarten president Sherylle Horsford.
PHILIPSBURG--The Rotary Club of St. Maarten kicked off its new Rotary year on Saturday last weekend at the Pure Ocean Restaurant at Divi Little Bay Beach Resort by welcoming its new president Sherylle Horsford. Outgoing President John Caputo thanked his Board of Directors for their service over the past two years.
“The last two years have been a challenging time for everyone in our region and Rotary is no exception. I am proud of the work completed by our members and everyone’s efforts to secure almost US $400,000 to help transform the Sister Marie Laurence School in Middle Region to an exceptional education School. This grant will help make lasting and meaningful change to our island. It’s what Rotary is all about,” said John Caputo.
President Caputo shortly after officially turned over the reigns of the Rotary Club to Horsford. “I want to thank outgoing President John Caputo for his service and for holding the mantle for not one, but two years. Thank you for your service. During the new Rotary year, our club will continue many of the great traditional projects that you have come to expect from us.
In addition, it my intention to add a focus of reducing the use of one-time plastics on the island. You will see us add this theme to all of our traditional projects and new projects in the most practical way possible,” said the new president.
She introduced her new Board Members and Committee Chairpersons which include, Secretary/President-elect Dimple Sagre, Immediate Past President John Caputo, Vice President Pierre DeCelles, Treasurer Robert Judd and Sargent-at-Arms Franklyn Maynard.
