What You Missed Last Week!
Last week’s program was Jaclyn Donovan, president of the Rotary Club of Moultrie. Jaclyn’s presentation was on RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards). She did an outstanding job presenting RYLA and this was especially enlightening to members who are relatively new to Rotary. Although RYLA is for those 13-30, Jaclyn made it clear that any Rotarian can get involved as a member of the support staff. More
Thomasville Rotary's Birthday Gifts to the Community
It’s not every year that an organization celebrates its centennial anniversary. May 2021 will mark the Rotary Club of Thomasville’s 100th birthday which the club intends to celebrate all year long. Rotary Past President Jeff Zoller summed up the core spirit of the club and its membership when he said, “Over the past one hundred years the Club and its members have made significant and diverse service contributions to the city, with innumerable members involved in service projects to youth and the community. Members have served in diverse leadership roles within the business, education, medical, and government spheres, including members who have served in city, county, and state governments.” More

Honoring our Local Heroes
Midmorning on Wednesday, January 27, a handful of Rotarians arrived at the Remington Park Fire Station and fired up a large grill to prepare hamburgers and hot dogs for more than 60 firefighters and EMTs. In addition to the sandwiches, the lunch menu included homemade baked beans, a bag of chips, a package of cookies and a cold drink. With almost military-like precision, nearly 100 boxed meals were assembled by another group of Rotarians, and a little before 12 Noon, the meals started flying off the serving table. It was a very dreary rainy day, but you could not tell it by the good time had by the nearly 20 Rotarians who participated in the event. Together… we honored our local heroes!
Interact...Persevering in a Pandemic
All over the world, Interact Clubs are helping young students age 12-18 develop leadership skills, give back to their communities, and have fun doing it. There are nearly 15,000 Interact clubs in 145 countries and more than a third of a million Interactors discovering the meaning of Service Above Self. In District 6900 alone there are more than 50 Interact clubs, and 6 of those are sponsored by the Rotary Club of Thomasville. More
