Rotary Club of Alpine

A very special "thank you" to the President of the Rotary Club of Alpine, Greg Freidline,  for making my visit to their club such an enjoyable experience.  He has really got this club focused and on the move!  Thinking "outside the box", the club decided that any month there are 5 meetings, the 5th meeting would be held in the evening to help those members who have a difficult time making the meetings during the day.  The Rotary Club of Alpine sent 5, yes I said 5, students to RYLA!  WAY TO GO!  The club holds several fundraisers throughout the year including a pancake supper, selling chili at the Art Walk and an Annual Rifle Raffle.  They award scholarships to incoming freshman who attend Sul Ross State University.  The club has already appointed two members who will serve as New Generations Chairs.  The Rotary Club of Alpine is also working on starting an Interact Club in their community.  Thank you Rotary Club of Alpine and keep up the great work!
