PTC End of Year Celebration by Mandy Timmons
What an absolutely AMAZING year our club has had! We received the D6900 first ever district collaborative grant in which we worked with 7 other clubs in the area and Midwest Food Bank to support our community. We hosted the 1st Annual Bourbon & Bow Ties / Pinot & Pearls AND the 1st Annual Half Marathon - both were hugely successful! We created a new tradition of celebrating our diversity through International Dessert Day. We continue to have amazing social events with Coffee Chats, Business Roundtable, Rotary on Tap and Dine Around. And as you can - we just have FUN!!!
We are so proud to have been recognized across our District with the following awards and accolades:
- Global Grant Accepted - Focus on Palliative Care with our partner club in India (just awarded this week)
- District Public Image Award
- District Membership Growth Award (39 new members this year)
- District Foundation Giving Award ($140,000+ given to our Rotary Foundation by our club members)
- District Foundation per Capita Giving Award (Avg of $1000+ per member)
- Best Community Service Award
- Sheffield Leadership Award for President Amy Benton
And - to top it off - CLUB OF THE YEAR!!!
We are so thankful for our COMMUNITY and the support we have seen this last year and hope to further connect with everyone as we continue #DoingGoodInTheWorld through #ServiceAboveSelf!
