Their goal was not simply to create an exit plan\, but to build a lasting structure that would ensure Optimax would never be sold\, employees would continue to share in the company’s success\, and the business would remain a source of jobs\, innovation\, and opportunity for decades to come. \nRick’s message is a powerful reminder that succession planning is not only about what happens when an owner leaves. It is also about what remains: the people\, the culture\, the jobs\, the shared prosperity\, and the legacy a business leaves behind. \n  \nUse the form below to register for this luncheon. \n\n\n \n Name(Required)\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email(Required)\n \n Non-eater\n \n \n I understand I will be charged the $10 non-eater fee\n Guest Names Add RemoveDietary NeedsPlease let us know if you have anything fineable\n \n I have a fine\n \n Submit URL:https://www.rochesterrotary.org/event/tuesday-luncheon-meeting-167/ LOCATION:Locust Hill Country Club CATEGORIES:Featured,Luncheon ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.rochesterrotary.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Rick-Plympton-Bio.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260804T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260804T130000 DTSTAMP:20260723T200050Z CREATED:20260715T181118Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260723T200050Z UID:10018008-1785844800-1785848400@www.rochesterrotary.org SUMMARY:Tuesday Luncheon Meeting DESCRIPTION:Join us at Locust Hill Country Club to hear from guest speaker Kyle Duck\, Vice President of Electric Operations at RG&E. \nThe presentation will provide an overview of RG&E’s commitment to serving the Rochester region\, including recent customer service performance metrics\, updates on storm response and system resiliency efforts\, and highlights of major infrastructure projects currently underway.
