The club scheduled a social every month to increase membership and awareness. They selected various restaurants to contribute to our local economy and advertised the events on social media.
Area age 62+ citizens were invited to come out for some fun and relive their Prom night, or just attend the Prom they missed! While the event allowed people to dance the night away, for many event goers, there was a deeper meaning behind being able to experience a night of nostalgia. The Prom was FREE to seniors, and featured a dance ensemble by GlamourGals of Peachtree City, heavy hors dā oeuvres, dancing, photographs, and crowning of the king and queen! The Prom was sponsored by several local prominent organizations, citizens and businesses indicating their support of our senior citizens. The funds raised also benefit Two Sparrows Village at Christian City.
Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) is an intensive training program that brings together youth and young adults, ages 15-17, to further develop character and leadership skills and learn about Rotary. RYLAs often take the form of a seminar, camp, or workshop, generally 3-10 days in length, organized by Rotarians at the club, district, or multidistrict level.
Participants are nominated by local Rotary clubs, which often cover all expenses. For these young adults, this recognition offers the opportunity to build self-confidence, gain exposure to a variety of issues and people, meet active community leaders, and learn valuable information and career skills.
