Our club enjoyed a
social gathering with charter member Ralph Edmonds and his wife Joyce Wednesday
September 26 at the Country Club. It was great to hear, both Wednesday
and Thursday morning, the Edmonds speak enthusiastically about their life in
“The Villages,” a community in Florida which features village living next to
acres of “Forever Wild” land. The Villages, although with a population
similar to Camillus, features village centers, and miles of trails open to golf
carts, bicycles, and walkers.
The Edmonds are very
positive about their new community and the opportunities it offers for service
to others. Of course, the weather is wonderful but it does have a lot of
lightning.
The community boasts three Rotary
Clubs. The largest club is the morning club which has over 120
members. The noon and evening clubs average about 20 members. The
main theme of their clubs is Education. Although their community is for
older people, the public school is a magnet school. This school is open
to anyone employed in their community. The school has Interact in their
high school, a middle school program, and 2 Early Acts in elementary. The
main fund raiser for the rotary is a chili cook-off which brings in
$30,000. There are many Paul Harris Fellows.
The
Edmonds also commented on the safety and health in the community. The community
has a luxurious hospital built by the developer. Medical assistance is only 4
minutes from any home. There is a neighborhood watch and a sense of caring
about each other.
Registration

Rotary
Timeline – 1919 – Rotary officially adopts corporate logo
Beginning with the Rotary Club of Chicago in 1905, Rotary
clubs had used a wheel symbol as an emblem, yet each club had its own
variation. Then, in December 1918, the gearwheel was adopted as the official
corporate seal.
After “re-engineering” the emblem with a keyway to give
it the appearance of a realistic gearwheel, the final design was approved by
the Board in a January 1924 meeting. The emblem remains unchanged and continues
to identify Rotary clubs and their members in every corner of the world.
