Official Visit # 10, Raton
July 24, 2012

After traveling from Clayton to Raton, I was picked up by President Bill’s son Hunter and taken to the home of President Bill Allen to meet and greet with the Board of Directors and members of this incredible club.  This was a wonderful time of fellowship and understanding of the club and their members.  The fellowship and learning were both wonderful.

Early the next morning began with a trip to the NRA Whittington Center guided by Rotarian and NRA Board Member Bill Daily.  This is an amazing facility and a real draw to the area.  We then toured the theater and met with its director.

Once at the club meeting, I found a warm and very caring group of Rotarians involved in the community and making this community a better place to live and raise a family.  This club does wonderful projects in the community as well as supporting RYLA and other youth programs.  I truly enjoyed my time in Raton and find Rotary very alive and well in this community of many needs.  Thank you to the club  of Raton for all you continue to do and also your vision of future projects.  Lead on!
