Welcome from Club President Katharine Danner

Katharine DannerThe Rotary pin has undergone three major redesigns since the first emblem was designed in the early 1900s. The pin that I proudly wear now--a wheel with cogs, spokes and keyway--has been the emblem of Rotary for nearly 90 years and is worn by 1.2 million Rotarians in more than 200 countries and geographical areas!

While attending the 100th Rotary International Convention in June 2009, a new friend from England told me what the Rotary wheel signified to her and her late husband, a former President of RIBI. She said, "It is both an emblem of integrity and a passport to friendship."

In my nearly 10 years as a member of the Rotary Club of Ashland Lithia Springs, I have used my "passport to friendship" when visiting British Columbia; Missouri; New York, Colombia; Japan, England, Sweden and the Czech Republic. Early in my stay in these states or countries I tried to attend a Rotary club meeting. These club visits contributed to richer memories - not to mention better restaurant suggestions--than I would have had as a tourist.

I have had the pleasure of hosting high school Rotary Youth Exchange students from Belgium, the Czech Republic, Sweden, and the Kamchatka region of Russia. I saw the deep roots of true international friendship and understanding that these students put down during their exchange year. My life has been enriched by knowing these world citizens.

I invite you to join the members of the Rotary Club of Ashland Lithia Springs to experience for yourself the integrity and friendship of our members and of the worldwide fellowship of Rotary.
