Dear Fellow Rotarians,

As we step into the month of April, I am filled with gratitude for the dedication and enthusiasm each of you brings to our Rotary community. It is through our collective efforts that we continue to make a meaningful impact on the lives of those around us.

This month, let us renew our commitment to Rotary's core values of service, fellowship, diversity, integrity, and leadership. These values guide us as we tackle the challenges facing our communities and work towards building a better world for all. 

I encourage each of you to take advantage of the opportunities for service and engagement that our club provides. Whether it's participating in the upcoming blood drive, the Ronald McDonald Family Room service project, attending our weekly Rotary meetings, or connecting with fellow members, let us seize the chance to make a difference together.

As we reflect on the Club’s incredible achievements and look ahead to the opportunities in the future, let us remain steadfast in our dedication to Rotary's mission. Together, we can continue to be a force for positive change in our communities and beyond.

Thank you for your ongoing commitment to Rotary, and I look forward to another month of service, fellowship, and making a difference together.

Yours in Rotary,

Catherine

Justin Hayes, Executive Director Conservation League - "Idaho Salmon and Dams; What Does the Future Hold?"
 
April is Rotary International "Environment" month.
 
April Program Chair:    Jerry Schield & Carrie Scheid
April Greeter:   Miranda Marquit  
April Sergeant-At-Arms:  Todd Mary

Justin is the executive director for the Idaho Conservation League, an Idaho-based, statewide conservation organization working to protect the air you breathe, the water you drink, and the wildlife and wildlands that you love. The Idaho Conservation League, or ICL, is Idaho’s leading voice for conservation.

In leading ICL, Justin relies on his unique blend of science-based technical skills, public policy experience, and love of people and the outdoors. Prior to becoming ICL’s executive director, Justin served as the director of ICL’s conservation programs for 18 years.

He has a master of science in Earth Systems, focusing on ecosystem management, a bachelor of science in Earth Systems and a bachelor of arts in Human Biology, all from Stanford University.

A native Idahoan, Justin rejoices in the knowledge that his work is protecting the things that make Idaho a great place to live – our spectacular landscapes, wildlife, clean air, and clean water.

Justin lives in Boise and enjoys spending his free time hunting and fishing in Idaho’s backcountry, mountain biking, skiing, and running Idaho’s amazing rivers.
