Interact and Rotaract Clubs

This year we continue our support and involvement with our Rotaract and Interact Clubs. Our LaGrange College Rotaract Club is being revised with an emphasize on increasing membership. Our school-based Interact club is the Troup High School Interact Club and our community-based Interact club is the West Georgia Community Interact Club. Our New Generations Director Wesley Long (Trae) works with all three of our youth organizations. Additional Rotarians are also involved with mentoring students in all three clubs.

High school math teacher Peter Anderson is the faculty advisor of the Troup High School Interact Club. The members of the high school club are actively involved in both school and community projects. Among their most impressive projects are their annual blood drive and their cancer fundraising events.

LaGrange Rotarian Barbara Henigin is the advisor for the West Georgia Community Interact Club. Barbara works closely with the club's president, Landon Traylor, to plan and complete projects that include retirement home events, PolioPlus and general fundraisers and joint programs/projects with the LaGrange Rotary Club.

The West Georgia Community Interact Club members have worked with members of the LaGrange Rotary Club in the Sweet Land of Liberty and 2016 Christmas parades and the District 6900 Country Store Project.

Both of the Interact clubs are eligible for our Zone Interact Award and the WGC Interact Club will also be eligible for the 2016-2017 Presidential Interact Citation. We are very proud of the students' degree of commitment and their accomplishments.
