President's Message
Expanding Our Reach

Congratulations to Madelyn and the Grimes family for being awarded the Rotary Youth Exchange scholarship to study in Italy for the next school year. Wether it's beer on Delta Airlines, feeding students in Honduras or getting involved in Rotary Youth Exchange we continue to expand our club's reach around the world.

This Week's Speaker
Chris Nelson - CNC

Chris Nelson is the Executive Director of the Chattahoochee Nature Center and an active member of our club.

Chris will give us the inside scoop on all the cool things happening at CNC.
