BOOK DRIVE
Basic education and literacy is one of The Rotary Foundation’s six areas of focus. We know that basic education and literacy are essential for reducing poverty, improving health, encouraging community and economic development, and promoting peace. During the month of September, South Tyler Rotary is hosting a BOOK DRIVE for the Literacy Council of Tyler. Bring books to our meetings or contact Brandie Henderson for pick up.

A quick tour of America’s Favorite participation game: Bowling!
Born in Longview, practically a life long East Texan. With family in Tyler, Brad moved here shortly after graduating high school. Attended UT Tyler. Prior to moving back to East Texas, spent time in Dallas, Little Rock, and Shreveport. Chose to return to Tyler in 1990 to raise family here. Spent 17 years in the car business, sales manager at King Chevrolet until it sold in 2005, then sales manager at Hall GMC until 2010. Made a career and joined Southeastern Freight Lines as an account manager in 2010.
One thing you likely don’t know about Brad, he was a radio disc jockey in the early 80’s here in East Texas.
Brad is an avid amateur bowler, and has bowled tournaments as far away as Syracuse, NY. He has taken his love for the game beyond the lanes, promoting, organizing events, and working with youth interested in the game. He’s been a member of the South Tyler Rotary Club since 2005 and is best known in the club for his “secret spaghetti sauce” made for the club’s annual spaghetti supper fundraiser.
He has a blended family of 6 children, and 7 grandkids, all living in the Tyler area and is a member of the 1st Christian (Disciples of Christ) Church.
