Rotarians Serve
Our very own Barry Kimbrough, Lt. Col USMC, is serving in Afghanistan but takes Rotary with him wherever he goes. Barry and his fellow Marines completed a hike up Ghar Mountain in Kabul and took a few pictures. Keep Barry and his fellow service members in your prayers and hearts for a safe return.


Adopt-A-Highway Report
Another great turnout for our Service Project of keeping Virginia Beach and Princess Anne Road beautiful. We had 15 people, including our newest member Seth Saunders and his family. Seth's 3 boys were a big help and he may buy his own "Rotarians at work" vests if it helps get the boys motivated around the house! A total of 15 bags of trash were collected. Our usual after-pickup haunt, Burger King, was knocked to the ground for "remodeling" so we had to spend some time in Duncan Donuts instead. Somehow we'll survive the change!
2010-2011 Installation Banquet
The Rotary Club of Hampton Roads held it's Installation Banquet on June 25, 2010 at Westminster-Canterbury with special guest DG Jayne Sullivan. DG Sullivan honored the club by inducting our newest member, Seth Saunders, as well as installing the 2010-2011 Board and President.
The club also honored our newest Paul Harris Fellow, Dave Mansfield and presented several prestigious RI awards to club members. Paul Peter received the Cliff Dochterman Award for Dedicated and Distinguished Service to Scouting and Chester Long received the Four Avenues of Service Citation. The Rotarian of the Year Award went to Bob Herd.
