On January 16, 2020, the Peachtree City Rotary Club hosted an induction ceremony for members of the newly chartered Rotaract Club of Peachtree City.  The ceremony was led by Rotary President, Chris Boehm and Rotary New Generations Director, Amy Benton.  New charter members include:  Samuel Bailey, Bryce Benton, Kellie Benton, Austin Childs, Taylor Childs, Faith DeBartola, Azell Francis, Michael Heesch, Ricky Ruiz, Kara Templeton, Brooke Turner, Travis Turner, Scott Wagner, Brooke Wallace, and Jonathan Wallace.

 

In the fellowship of service, the new Rotaract club inductees participated in their first service project with the Peachtree City Rotary Club and their sponsored Interact Clubs at Counterpane Montessori and Starr’s Mill High School to collect over 300 items of winter wear (coats, jackets, blankets, scarves and hats) to donate to Real Life Center to help those in our community in need.

Mayor Vanessa Fleisch presented a sneak preview of the “State of the City” and brought us up to speed on all of the amazing things that our city is doing!  Pictured with Mayor Fleisch are four of our next generation of Rotarians from the Counterpane Montessori and Starr's Mill Interact Clubs!  

We partnered with our newly chartered PTC Rotaract Club, Starr's Mill Interact Club and Counterpane Montessori Interact Club to collect over 300 winter items to donate to Real Life Center!

Speaker Scott Gilbert (Spouse of Rotarian Amanda Gilbert), is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, Sons of the American Revolution and a number of historical societies.  He has studied the Civil War for 48 years and is a retired reenactor and living history presenter to more than thirty thousand 4th, 5th and 8th graders.
