Rotarians fit the definition as "Role Models" although we simply seek to serve, help, and contribute to the betterment of humanity. Tom Wynn expressed it so eloquently as he acknowledged the exceptional efforts afforded by some of the senior members who, to say the least, are our Role Models. Our morning meeting was really special as it was standing room only. We were blessed with special guess Raphael, our own exchange student, Rich Myers our Rotarian best friend, Jay Julian of Veterans Videos, and Bob Bortz very special guest of Deb Heldt. To add "icing on the cake" Ron Smith presented Rik and Lei Barry with the esteemed Paul Harris recognition for their philanthropic efforts.
As President I feel Rotary is the power to leverage your philanthropic vision. I feel that Rotary is an organization of male and female community leaders from all ethnic backgrounds and religions, dedicated to volunteering in local and international communities, who want to address humanitarian issues such as Peace Resolution, Disease Prevention, Water & Sanitation, Child Health, Literacy, and Community Development. The Blue Bell Club is one of 34,000 clubs worldwide, over 1.2 million total members.
