Jackie Minotas: After my retirement 4 years ago, my daughter sometimes asks “mom, what do you do all day”? It takes me but a minute to answer her. Rotary is a big part of my life starting with my Club where I am a 2-time club president and currently the membership chair, RYLA chair and the 4 Way Test Speech Contest Chair, and I participate on most (all) committees. I love Rotary and I love my club! The past few years I have had the pleasure to work with so many wonderful Rotarians on the District Conference and have made lifelong friends. I am also on the Rotary Board of Directors. My days include Rotary in one shape or form!
Outside of Rotary I manage to keep busy. I volunteer weekly with the Hillcrest Meals on Wheels program and I serve on its board. I occasionally help my daughter with family parties at the Ronald McDonald House.
My husband and I belong to LEWTA, a wine group that meets once a month at various wineries, again, we have met so many wonderful people, not to mention some great wine!
I am fortunate to have a wonderful network of friends, 20+ years monthly book club, monthly lunches with high school friends and still connect with my 2 coworkers.
Family is very important, I host many holidays, plan family game night, but the most important and most precious to me, is our once-a-week family pasta dinners at our house.
Retirement has allowed us the time to travel. We have traveled to Slovenia, Croatia, Mexico, Hawaii and my favorite, a family Mediterranean Cruise.
When I’m not walking my grand dog, you can find me reading or bingeing on a favorite show.
