On Tuesday, July 14, 2026, I met with the Rotary Club of Paulding County. President Brian Headrick and his board shared many of the fundraising activities, meaningful moments they have experienced, and service projects on which they have enjoyed working together.

I listened intently and took good notes on areas in which the other District leaders and I could support them. They are a club connected through long-time friendships and commitment to their community. Through their annual golf tournament, they have raised funds to support their charitable activities. They recently donated $50,000 to Chattahoochee Technical College for student support. They also actively support the Paulding Child Advocacy Center which provides services for children who may have been the victim of abuse. The Executive Director of the Center, Ivy Capps, is a member of the Rotary Club. Paulding Rotarians are involved in many activities that create a lasting impact, and from what I could see, I know that they will continue.
