Thanks to our hosts Rick and Laura Jaynes...to chef de cuisine President Frank...and to SLAP YO MAMA seasoning!
Gold N Things supports education in Duncanville
Posted on Jul 01, 2016
Duncanville business Gold N Things became the newest business to subscribe to our Flag Program.  
 
Phyllis and John Lambert have a great desire to support education and scholarships for high school students and said these are just a few reasons they put up the flags in front of their business.
 
Phyllis said she may put another one up, and is willing to help spread the word so that we can increase our scholarship fund!
 
Thank you both for your commitment to our City of Champions!
 
Last Meeting of 2015-2016
What a year it has been for the Rotary Club of Duncanville.
 
Outgoing President Helen Peralta presented a Thank You Award to Mary Fae Kamm, Executive Director of the International Museum of Cultures.  The Rotary Club of Duncanville has been meeting at the museum since January during a transition period.  Anyone who knows Mary Fae, knows that she represents the pinnacle of Rotary's guiding principle "Service Above Self".  Mary Fae was the second woman to preside over our Club.  Her husband, Herbert Kamm, served twice as President of our Club and is D5810 PDG.  Mary Fae has been the most gracious host and we will miss seeing her every Tuesday.  Thank you Mary Fae!

Giving is part of his Rotary Legacy
 
Past President and Past D5810 Assistant Governor Bob Talbot received his fourth Paul Harris Fellow recognition.
 
It is because of his giving that Rotary International is able to build schools and healthcare centers around the world,
provide clean water in remote areas where there is little or no access, educate people of all ages, bring shelter when
disaster strikes, allow babies and mothers to receive appropriate healthcare, and so much more!  
 
Thank you Bob for being a gift to the world!
