This resolution honors the Jamestown Rotary Club on its 80th anniversary, recognizing its significant contributions to the local community. The Rotary Club, chartered in April 1945, is part of Rotary International, a global network of 1.2 million members dedicated to humanitarian service and promoting ethical standards. With 23 members, all of whom have been named Paul Harris Fellows, the club has been actively involved in numerous community projects, including sponsoring Interact and Rotaract Clubs in local schools, providing the Third-Grade Dictionary Project, hosting annual fundraising events like the Chicken Festival and Children's Shopping Spree Radio-Thon, and offering scholarships to local students. The club has also made substantial community improvements, such as upgrading Mark Twain Park, and consistently upholds Rotary's motto of "Service Above Self." The resolution commends the club's members, both past and present, for their dedication to public service and extends best wishes for their continued success. The document is a formal recognition by the Tennessee House of Representatives and Senate, acknowledging the Jamestown Rotary Club's remarkable eight-decade history of community engagement and charitable work.
