As is often the case, the new Rotary year brings warm greetings to new members, and fond farewells to those who are leaving the club. As of July 1, six of the club's number are leaving membership for retirement, another club, or other pursuits. The club bids farewell to members who will not be with us as we begin 2022-2023:- Christine Bell
- Matt Colpitts
- Bella Chaffey
- Ken Hollingsworth
- Bill Taylor
- Brian Tucker
In addition, long-time Rotarian and past president Bill Woods was elected to honorary membership by the board of directors. Congratulations, Bill! The Rotary Club of Kirkland's new year begins with 38 active members.
