President's Message
Special Olympics
In every corner of the world, Special Olympics is changing the lives of people with intellectual disabilities and Roswell Rotary was there this weekend to help. Rotarians teamed up with the Roswell Police department to generate over $4,600 in donations by jumping into the frigid cold waters of Lake Acworth. Thank you to all who donated to this cause and especially to those who froze their you know what off for those with disabilities.
While some of us were taking a dip in the lake, others were busy adding a face lift to Bulloch Hall with a new coat of paint and some vegetation maintenance. Thanks for all who came out for both of these service projects!
You won't want to miss this week's meeting where we will honor some of our high school athletes via the Skipper Hoke awards. NFL great Michael Haynes will be our key note speaker!

Former Falcon Michael Haynes Speaker at Rotary Feb. 24
Former Falcon Michael Haynes Speaks to Roswell Rotary
Some memories about Michael Haynes with the Falcons..."Haynes was a dangerous deep threat with speed who absolutely ate defensive backs alive, and he had one of the most productive single seasons in franchise history before the likes of Roddy White and Julio Jones came along."
He really came into his own in 1991, however. Haynes was an absolute monster that year for the Falcons, snagged just 50 balls and turning them into 1,122 yards and 11 touchdowns and averaging an absurd 22.4 yards per reception. He was a key player on a team that made the playoffs for the first time in a very long while, and he proved it wasn’t a fluke by following it up with 48 balls, 808 yards and 10 touchdowns in 1992.
Come Hear from Michael Haynes on Feb. 24!
