The more than 1.2 million worldwide members of Rotary are committed to humanitarian service, high ethical standards in all vocations, and goodwill and peace in the world. Like their fellow Rotarians in the 30,000 clubs in 166 countries, Robertsdale Rotarians represent a diverse group of professional leaders — both currently employed and retired — working to address local and international service needs.

Service Above Self

173 The mission of The Rotary Foundation is to enable Rotarians to advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace through the improvement of health, the support of education, and the alleviation of poverty.
The Foundation is a not-for-profit corporation supported solely by voluntary contributions from Rotarians and friends of the Foundation who share its vision of a better world.

After 20 years of hard work, Rotary and its partners are on the brink of eradicating this tenacious disease, but a strong push is needed now to root it out once and for all. It is a window of opportunity of historic proportions.

endpolioYour contribution will help Rotary raise $200 million to match $355 million in challenge grants received from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The resulting $555 million will directly support immunization campaigns in developing countries, where polio continues to infect and paralyze children, robbing them of their futures and compounding the hardships faced by their families.

As long as polio threatens even one child anywhere in the world, children everywhere remain at risk. The stakes are that high.

Welcome to the Rotary in Robertsdale!

Rotary is a great organization, and it has the potential to become even greater — if each one of us rises to the challenge and takes responsibility for its future.

ROBERTSDALE'S SWEET HOME ALABAMA!

The Robertsdale Rotary Club's first meeting for 2012, on Jan. 3rd, had an exciting program with Cody Harris and Tristan Smith, from CMT's Sweet Home Alabama Show.  Rotarian Teresa King personally knows Cody & Tristan, so she had this planned all along, for her program.

DSC_0449Cody Harris was a guest in the first episode of Sweet Home Alabama and Tristan Smith was the WINNER in the second episode, which was over late last year.  Cody & Tristan have both lived in Robertsdale all their lives, both graduated from RHS & are only 22 years old.  They have a very bright future ahead of them and we were honored to have them as our program.

Cody and Tristan will also be at the Robertsdale Rotary Rodeo, March 9th & 10th and will be available to sign autographs.

Robertsdale Rotary Club taps top floats in annual Christmas parade

ROBERTSDALE, Alabama --- Parade goers once again lined the streets on Saturday, Dec. 3 for the Robertsdale Rotary Club’s Christmas Parade.

 

The City of Robertsdale also hosted its annual Christmas in the Park on Saturday before and after the parade with performances by the Robertsdale High School chorus and Golden Bear Marching Band.

Rotary Club President Ruthie Campbell led the parade up Highway 59 to Honeybee Park, followed by the Rotary International Float, which featured the Rotary Club’s Rodeo princesses, which are Robertsdale Rotarians’ daughters, granddaughters and great-granddaughters who are 12 and under.

A total of 72 different groups, including floats and walkers, participated in this year’s parade, Campbell said. Awards were handed out for both large and small category floats.

Winners of the large category were: Appleton Saddle Club, first place; Roger Booth Vinyl Siding, second; and Robertsdale Senior Center, third.

Winners in the small category were: International Girl Youth Development, first place; Dare to Dance, second; and Cub Scouts Pack 45, third place.

Silverhill kicked off this year’s flurry of Christmas activity with its annual Christmas Parade and Open House Friday, Dec. 2. The Loxley Optimist Club hosted that town’s annual Christmas Parade on Saturday, Dec. 10, followed by Christmas in the Park featuring photos with Santa.

The next big event upcoming for the Rotary Club will be its annual Rodeo event which will be held March 9 and 10 at the Baldwin County Coliseum and Fairgrounds Arena.
