What is Rotary
I became a member in 1978 shortly after moving my office from downtown
Milwaukee to Mequon. Was encouraged to join by a business associate,
George Colburn, who shortly thereafter earned the nick name "Chicken George" after
serving the club under cooked chicken for lunch.
Didn't become very active until 1985, which was our club's 50th year and
the fund raising and building of Mequon's Rotary Park commenced.. I soon
realized and appreciated how much good a small group of people could do
for their communities.
Have particularly enjoyed being involved for 25+- years with the Family Fun before
the 4th's annual July 4th celebration, and with the assistance of Rotary Club members
serving free ice cream and staffing the Corn Roast booth.
Have also enjoyed being involved with many of our clubs community benefiting activities.
I recently had occasion to present to our club a Quote from Albert Einstein about life.
"I believe in one thing - that only a life lived for others is a life worth living."
Sounds like a good Rotary motto.
