Why We Love Rotary
Paul Harris Award
 
Our club has been blessed with members and leaders that have made an impact and continue to impact our community and the world in big ways through Rotary. Our incredible member, Joe Lott exemplifies service and commitment to making this world better. Our Rotary District's District Governor Nominee (Peter Anderson) recognized Joe Lott as a member of Rotary's prestigious Paul Harris Society.  The Paul Harris award is for sustained generous giving to the Rotary Foundation.
