The theme
of the Rotary Club of Effingham County for 2011-2012 will be
“Accentuate the Positive.” The club will continue working
with Habitat for Humanity, with the South Effingham High
School Interact Club, with the Volunteer of the Year
Program, and with the Effingham County School System.
Presenting high school seniors with scholarships is one of
the major goals of the club. In 2011, the Rotary Club of
Effingham County presented six high school seniors in
Effingham County with scholarships in the amount of $2000.00
each. There is also a commitment to the Georgia Rotary
Student Program (GRSP), to Rotary International through the
Polio Plus Campaign, as well as to various other programs in
District 6920 and beyond. Our major fund raiser in the late
spring of the year is the START
(Students-Teachers-and-Rotary-Together) Golf Tournament.
This tournament says it all for us…We work together for the
good of all concern.
If you
are able to join us at our regular meetings each week or at
any of our many functions, we welcome you to “Accentuate the
Positive” actions of Rotarians in Effingham County. The
Rotary Club of Effingham County will continue with efforts
to put Service Above Self in the local community as well as
through Rotary International.
