Julie Rogers, the Community Engagement Manager for the New Mexico Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association will speak this Tuesday. Rotary clubs across the nation have chosen to partner with the association to increase awareness about the impact of dementia in our communities through an action group called The Alzheimer's/Dementia Rotary Action (ADRAG). ADRAG's supports Rotary as it initiates programs centered on Alzheimer's and dementia. It will inform Rotary on the latest scientific research in the fight to find a cure for Alzheimer's disease and about the disease's devastating impact on communities and families.

The Rotary Club meets every Tuesday from 12-1 p.m. for lunch in the WNMU Student Memorial Building, Second Floor, Sunset Room. There is a brief "meet and greet", a short business meeting and then the speaker has the floor. The club welcomes members of the public to the meetings. If lunch is desired, pay the cashier $14 and go through the cafeteria line. If unable to attend in person, a Zoom link for the meeting can be obtained by email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
