Honoring Our First Responders

Throughout this Rotary year, we are recognizing the policemen, firemen & EMTs in our community. We started by honoring both the police chief and fire chief and making them honorary members of our club. They attend Roswell Rotary regularly and are recognized at each visit. In addition, we have honored our Roswell police officers, EMTs and firemen and women at our meetings and learn about their service to our community. Roswell Rotary was proud to honor District Governor Raymond Ray's son, who is a Roswell police officer during the Governor's visit to Roswell Rotary. As part of our recognition, a club member who serves or has served in this capacity is awarded the Rotary First Responder pin when honored at our meeting. In particular, we honored these men and women for the amazing job they did when two teenagers were killed in Roswell in August. They handled the case swiftly and professionally. We cannot honor these men and women enough for serving our community in a professional and positive way. They demonstrate Service Above Self at its best!
