10 years ago former Lawrence Central charter member Ed Samp had an idea. Samp and several other area residents began talking in November 2002 about the idea of forming another chapter. They had heard of several people who were interested in joining a Rotary club but the meeting time, location or size of the existing two chapters wasn’t appealing to them.
A decade later the current members of the Lawrence Central Rotary celebrated our 10th anniversary. On March 13th, instead of our usual haunt at the Eldridge All American room, we descended upon Famous Dave’s banquet room and discussed the past and the future of our club. Members old and new brought their significant others and families for some time together to celebrate. Many thanks to Lynn O’Neal for putting together a slide show of memories and taking pictures.
Below pictures from the event and a scan of the program from the Rotary Charter Night held March 12, 2003. We’ve also posted our current President Bob Swan’s remarks to the attendees below. Thanks to everyone for coming!
