FOR Rotary 10th anniversary
FOR Rotary 10th anniversary
Fair Oaks Ranch Rotarians and guests gathered earlier this month at the Fair Oaks Ranch Golf & Country Club for a meeting and luncheon to recognize the 10th anniversary of the club’s founding. It was 2012 when 39 service-minded community leaders came together to form an organization committed to the international humanitarian service group’s motto, Service Above Self. Several charter members were in attendance, many of whom are still active, and they were honored for their years of contributions. The club’s first president, Kathy Hubbard, and current President Greg Maxton welcomed guest speaker Rotary Past District Governor Lisa Herring. Herring had presided over the 2012 formal installation ceremony. Pictured are, from left, club charter members Fran Driskell, Will Winslett, Kathy Hubbard, Cheryl Landman, Bill Fusco, Debbie Williams Martin, Tom McKeown, Jackson Moss, Jim Wade, Darrell Sawyer (wife Penny), Linda Tom (husband Jim), John Wall, Charles Pearson and John Rogers.
