If you live or work in the greater Old Town area, you are likely familiar with the Rotary Club of Old Town. Because of all it does in the community, Rotary can mean many things to many individuals. But when I think of Rotary, it means family.
The Rotary Club of Old Town is the kind of family everyone wishes they were part of. They always have the backs of their family members, supporting them through tough times and celebrating their accomplishments. This Rotary family works together to support and champion the entire community, helping out wherever there is a need.
Over the past few weeks, we:
- Built eleven raised beds on Perkins Avenue for a community garden
- Revamped the interior of the snack shack at the KC Little League field
- Delivered boxes of food to elementary schools in RSU 34, Milford, and Greenbush
- Relocated some of the eight handicap ramps we lend
- Volunteered dozens of hours at the Caring Community Cupboard
- Rallied around the family of a club member who recently passed
This past February marked my 25th anniversary of joining the Rotary Club of Old Town. From my first visit, I felt the love. I was 29 and had moved to Maine five years earlier leaving behind a very large, very loud, very loving extended Italian family. I found a new home in Rotary. A new family with members eerily similar to my biological family. There was the joker, the listener, the hugger, the complainer, the tech guru, the “git ‘er done” person, the organizer, the task master, the clown... and so many more. When I joined, they sorely needed a talker. I fit the bill nicely. I never would have guessed that 25 years later, I’d still be part of this amazing group.
What part do you play in your family? We always have room in ours for anyone willing to join our family and support our community. So, drop by some Thursday evening for social time at 5:30 PM and dinner at 6:00 PM. We meet in the downstairs of the Elks lodge on 4th Street near the boat launch.
We’d love to grow our family to include new and diverse members, with varied backgrounds and opinions, who are of one mind when it comes to service—Service Above Self.
Yours in Service,
Corina Larsen
Old Town Rotary raised nearly $800 dollars parking cars last Thursday during the Backstreet Boys concert to benefit the good we do in our community!
Following a beautiful evening, we enjoyed conversation and laughter over dinner at Blaze.
Thank you Bar Harbor Bank & Trust for providing us the space for our annual parking lot fundraiser!
We had the honor of hosting District Governor Denis Blouin at our first Rotary meeting of the new year.
District Governor Blouin travelled all the way from Sept-Îles, Quebec to join us last week. It was a pleasure having him and hearing about his vision for our district during his time in office as well as showing him around the community and visiting spots where our Club has made an impact. Thank you for inspiring us for this upcoming year!
