The Warminster Rotary Club has been serving its community for 59 years and celebrated this milestone at their Charter Luncheon on Sunday, April 11, 2021, on the porch at Giuseppe’s Restaurant. It was a great time spent celebrating the Club’s accomplishments over the past year – a very different and difficult year! In light of the COVID pandemic, the Club had to completely re-think meetings, fundraising and ways to stay connected. Despite the odds, the Club was incredibly successful in identifying two new, very successful fundraising events (Eagles football pool and 1st Annual Golf Outing) and recruiting new members! At the Charter Luncheon, the Club also updated members on the journey of Rosemarie, a child they have sponsored through Pearl S. Buck International for many years, who has just graduated from high school. The Club will continue to fund her education as she begins college to fulfill her dream of becoming a teacher. Due to the fact that the Club cannot hold a Scholarship Luncheon for the first time in many years, it was decided to post lawn signs at the homes of our scholarship winners – the signs were displayed at the luncheon.
A number of members and the Executive Board received Certificates of Appreciation for their tireless efforts on behalf of the club. Seven members received Paul Harris Fellowship Awards for their work.
