In place of our regularly scheduled meeting, we will be going on the road in the evening to the Atlanta International School to make sandwiches to benefit those experiencing food scarcity as part of the Sandwich Project.
We will meet in the outdoor pavilion behind the AIS building to create and assemble sandwiches. We have 1,000 sandwiches to make so bring a friend, work colleague, or significant other and join the assembly line. Afterwards we will be treated to a Mexican taco buffet dinner, adult beverages and social time to celebrate our successful sandwich production. Guests are welcome for $25 to enjoy in the sandwich making and fun.
Atlanta International School, 2890 North Fulton Drive, Atlanta, GA 30305, outdoor pavilion

These trusted partners help ensure the sandwiches get directly into the hands of those who need them most in our community.

The Champs are here!
Several Buckhead Rotarians attended the district conference at Lake Lanier Islands last weekend. It was an inspiring few days filled with fresh ideas, meaningful learning, and great fellowship with other clubs in our district. We had the opportunity to share best practices, gain new insights, and strengthen connections that will help us continue making an impact in our community.
And the weekend brought some exciting recognition for our club. Out of 67 clubs in the district, we were honored to be one of only seven to receive the Governor’s Citation. This award recognizes clubs for exceptional service, high-level achievement in key areas such as club growth, foundation giving, service projects, and public image. This is a testament to the dedication and service of our members to continue to strive to be the best Rotary club.
We also proudly took home the Public Image Award in Category IV for large clubs, highlighting the strong presence and visibility we are gaining in our community. And to top it off, one of our very own, Alec Smythe, was recognized with the Above and Beyond Award, an incredible and well-deserved honor. It was a weekend that not only celebrated what we’ve accomplished but also energized us for what’s ahead.
