Greetings,

 

Last month we had a speaker who is a volunteer at the county historical society.  He used his interest in history of the area and his talent for sleuthing out the facts to discover the history of a rock found along a road near Brownsville.  He shared his journey and findings with us.  It was a most entertaining history lesson!

 

Volunteers, whether they are at the historical society, local church, StreetScapes, Lions, Rotary or one of the many other community volunteer groups, come with a variety of interests, skills and talents.  I think we often say to ourselves that we could never do what we see someone else doing.  That may or may not be true, but we have a talent unique to ourselves.  It's like a jigsaw puzzle.  It takes all the pieces that are all a little different, to make a complete picture.  I think that's why Rotary originally asked people (actually just men at that time) to join who came from a variety of professions and backgrounds; hence the classification system.  Though Rotary doesn't emphasize that anymore, it's still helpful to have members with a variety of skills and interests.  It takes all of us working together to achieve our goals.

 

In Rotary Service,

Naomi
