The Chittenango Rotary Club celebrated our annual “Changing of the Guard” on July 8 at the Chittenango Landing Canal Museum. This event occurs at the end of every Rotary year (the Rotary year runs from July 1 to June 30), and marks the annual transition of club leadership. 
 
At this year’s Changing of the Guard ceremony, outgoing president, Jim Ecklund, passed the gavel to our incoming president, Karen Fauls-Traynor. We also celebrated the club’s accomplishments over the past year and recognized club members who served on the board for the previous 12 months.
 
Thanks for your service, Jim — and welcome aboard, Karen!
