Quote of the Week

Paul Harris Fellow
Last Thursday an anonymous donor surprised member Bridget Barrington with her 4th Paul Harris Fellow.
Bridget joined Club 21 in 2019 after transferring from the Mill Creek Rotary Club where she was a Past President and member for 10 years. Currently, Bridget is the Co-Chair of Club 21's Membership Development Committee.
When asked why the donor chose to award Bridget a Paul Harris Fellow they said,
"Bridget epitomizes the type of Rotarian that our community and world needs! She immediately jumped into our club and is active with many committees. Bridget is bright, friendly, engaged and I know that like many Rotarians, I enjoy seeing her at lunch each week. Bridget's "service above self" contributions make her a logical Paul Harris recipient."
Congratulations Bridget on your
4th Paul Harris Fellow!
