The Mayor of Lincoln - Chris Beutler - was our speaker at Lincoln South Rotary Club on March 18. The mayor spoke to the club about the many things Lincoln is doing to make the city inviting for people with a variety of interests and to attract and retain young people. Some of the priorities for the mayor include Innovation Campus, maintaining and advancing a prosperous economy and a dynamic business community, keeping a positive connection between the mayor's office and business organizations and West Haymarket projects. Some of the challenges include the public safety radio system, repairing the park system, budget issues with regard to the police and firefighters pension fund and the new library.
On March 25, 2016 our speaker at Lincoln South Rotary Club will be Lincoln's Public Safety Director Tom Casady who will tell us about a life-saving CPR assistant, Pulse Point.
Mark your calendars for the Salute to Business event on Tuesday April 5, 2016. This event is sponsored by all 4 Lincoln Rotary clubs and honors a local business which has contributed to job growth in the community.
The luncheon will be held at the Cornhusker Hotel and Nelnet has been selected as the honoree this year.
