President Jim Westfall
Keeping with our Rotary International’s President’s theme for the year, THE MAGIC OF ROTARY, my goals for our club this year are:
- Hope for the future in the continued fight for climate change through education and personal accountability.
- Continue to support local food programs for our seniors and families.
- Look at ways to promote peace.
- Support International projects that enhance the education and health of impoverished nations with a focus on women and children.
- Continue to build lasting relationships within our club.
- Continue to support the advancement of education to our local students through fundraising.
- Continue the fight to eradicate Polio globally.
We are also passionate about support for the Arts to include the enhancement of our local theater and youth programs. We are committed to the preservation of our rivers and open space through funding and hands-on projects. Our largest fundraiser, the CRAB FEAST, raises funds for our local high school students’ college scholarships.
We are a regional leader among Rotary Clubs in our area, giving to support Rotary’s effort to finally eradicate polio from our world. We’re so close to achieving our goals with polio. For more information on Rotary International, visit: www.rotary.org.
We are excited about many projects this year to address our club’s goals. Feel free to check in on this website from time to time to see what we’ve been doing.
Lastly, we believe in building friendships within our club. Our club likes to have fun
through local social events throughout the year. We have excellent and informative
programs at our weekly meetings.

The Rotary Club of Healdsburg Announces Dramatic Changes to Scholarship Awards
The Rotary Club of Healdsburg (noon) has a long tradition of providing scholarships to students graduating from public high school in Healdsburg and Geyserville. This year, the Club is continuing that tradition while implementing two significant changes.
The Club has increased the value of its College Scholarships to $25,000. And, for the first time, the Club is also providing scholarships and financial support to graduating students who are pursuing technical or vocational training or a certificate program in lieu of a two-year or four-year college degree.
“These changes are all about creating greater impact,” said Rotary Club President Jim Westfall. “The cost of a college degree has increased so much that we felt we needed to provide much more substantial support. At the same time, we recognize that a college degree is not right path for everyone. So we’re excited to provide financial aid to deserving students who are pursuing alternate routes to success in today’s economy.”
A New College Scholarship of Significant Value
The Rotary Club of Healdsburg College Scholarship is a competitive scholarship awarded to students who are planning to attend a 4-year college or university upon graduation from high school. The scholarship is worth a total of $25,000, provided the student completes a yearly renewal application and meets the requirements for continuing eligibility. Recipients will also receive mentorship and support during their undergraduate years from someone in their field of study or professional interest.
This year, the Rotary Club of Healdsburg College Scholarship will be awarded to five graduates of Healdsburg High School. Recipients will be announced at the Scholarship Night celebration at the Raven Theater on April 29.
“It was challenging to select the scholarship recipients from such an outstanding group of well-qualified and deserving applicants,” Westfall noted. “I wish we could have awarded this scholarship to even more students. With continued support from the local community, we hope we’ll be able to do that in the future.”
Support For Technical and Vocational Training
In today’s economy, nearly everyone needs some kind of additional training or education after high school. But a college degree is not the only path to success. This year, the new Rotary Club of Healdsburg Technical Education Scholarship will be awarded to five graduates. These recipients will also be announced at the Scholarship Night celebration at the Raven Theater on April 29.

The Rotary Club of Healdsburg has many community service-based traditions but one of our favorites is the annual Easter Egg Scramble. This tradition goes back several decades for the club and provides an opportunity to engage with the children of Healdsburg and surrounding areas in a family-friendly outdoor activity.
Spring is here! The Rotary Club of Healdsburg invites everyone to join its annual free Easter Egg Scramble on Saturday, April 19, at the Fitch Mountain School (565 Sanns Lane) in Healdsburg. Designed to be inclusive, accessible, and open, the Scramble focuses on children of all abilities from toddlers to 10-year-olds, this family-friendly celebration promises a fun-filled experience for everyone.
In addition to the Scramble, there will be a raffle for three bicycles. One will be awarded to children that are under 6 years old, a second bicycle will go to a child between 6 and 8 years old, and a third bicycle will go to a child between 8 and 10 years old. Each child is given a free raffle ticket when they register for the Scramble before 9:00AM.
Participants should bring their own bag/basket for the Scramble. The egg hunt will start promptly at 9:00AM and end once the eggs are all gone. Hop on the opportunity to join The Rotary Club of Healdsburg’s Egg-cellent Adventure. You won’t want to miss out on this fun and egg-citing day
This year, due to the shortage of eggs, we will be using plastic eggs filled with delightful treats.

March 8th marked the return of the Rotary Club of Healdsburg to Fitch Mountain to assist in clearing out French Broom bushes from the park. The French Broom is an invasive species that has been taking over parts of Fitch Mountain. In addition to being invasive, the French Broom poses a large fire hazard due to almost explosive flammability of the plant. Several Rotarians helped the LandPaths organization do the work.
