Adam Kroft
Partner | CEO at redthread
 
Headquartered in Lincoln, NE, and serving clients nationwide, Red Thread is a creative advertising agency focusing on video, graphic design, websites, and social media. Adam Kroft is the Partner & CEO of Red Thread. Red Thread was formulated on the idea that there are better ways to spend your advertising dollars. Everyone loves the Super Bowl ads because they’re engaging to watch. There’s no reason why a Super Bowl-caliber ad can’t be created for your company every other day of the year. That’s where Red Thread comes in. Adam will share with us what it takes to spend wisely your advertising dollars.

Welcome Newest Rotarian Maggie Stuckey-Ross
Maggie Stuckey-Ross is the Executive Director of Lincoln Parks Foundation, a role she has held since 2017. A native of Lincoln, Maggie has worked in both the public and non-profit sectors. Prior to Parks, she served as a policy aide to U.S. Senator Chuck Hagel and worked in fund development for Arbor Day Foundation and the University of Nebraska. In 2020, Maggie was named Non-Profit Professional of the Year by the Lincoln Young Professionals Group at the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce. She is honored to be a finalist for the Excellence in Non-Profit Award for the 2021 Inspire Awards, celebrating women's achievement in Lincoln. In June of this year, Maggie married David Ross, a GIS Analyst for the City of Lincoln Parks & Recreation Department.
