The well-known saying, “April showers bring May flowers,” resonates particularly well this year. However, in 2026, it might be more accurate to say that the consistent efforts from January through April have paved the way for May’s achievements. The time, creativity, dedication, and countless volunteer hours contributed by Rotarians, youth groups, businesses, and community members are the driving forces behind the success of the 53rd Annual Flip Flops & Flamingos Youth Benefit Dinner & Auction. These collective efforts translate directly into significant support for the youth of Gem County.

On Thursday, February 5, 2026, President Ted Clemens and Membership Chairman Chad Payne proudly inducted three new members into the Rotary Club of Emmett during the weekly lunch meeting: Will Barry, Rich Gibson, and Craig Woods. Each new member received a Rotary pin, a packet filled with endless opportunities, and a warm handshake to welcome them.
