In today’s episode of The LoCo Experience, I was joined by Teres Lambert and David Haase - fellow members of the Breakfast Rotary Club in Fort Collins - which meets every Thursday morning at 7 am at Ginger & Baker! They were here in part to talk about a pair of significant Rotary events upcoming this spring and summer - the Field of Honor - May 23 - 26 - spearheaded by Teres, and talk with David about The Peach Festival - which will be held August 16th this year at Civic Center Park in Old Town Fort Collins - one of the few remaining downtown festivals!

The Field of Honor is a service to the community, to honor heroes of all stripes on Memorial Day Weekend. With 500 flags flying adjacent to the Veterans Plaza and Travelling Memorial Wall, this project allows community members to honor a veteran, a first responder, a foster parent, a teacher - or any other hero of their lives with medallions attached to each flag. The Peach Festival is all things peachy and community and Rotary - with peach beers, live music, peach pie eating contests - and much much more.

And - we get to learn about what makes a great Rotarian, and what inspires a career professional to take the plunge into community service. Teres is a gifted writer, and a topical expert in anything beef or dairy! - and David is a veteran financial planner, who gives dozens of hours each year to the cause of building community. This episode is all about service, career, and community, and I loved sharing a bit of the journey with Teres Lambert and David Haase.
