Inspiration

"Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success." ~ Henry Ford

We are coming together at the beginning of a new Rotary year as a World Class Club and with a World Class President. Keeping together throughout this coming year and bringing in new members to join with us will be progress towards a successful end as we work together throughout this 2015-2016 Rotary Year.

Rotary 4-Way Test

Of the things we think, say or do: 1. Is it the TRUTH? 2. Is it FAIR to all concerned? 3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS? 4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?”

By building your team's self-esteem and encouraging them, the entire team becomes stronger.

Sing-Along Song - Rotary International Song

Take your time and sing-along (wherever you may be).

Hope you don't mind the misspellings. It was either that or listening to the song in another language

Happy Birthday

Program - Making Sugar Cane Syrup an Old Florida Tradition - Florida Cracker Kitchen

Before moving to Tampa where he made cigars, Frank's grand-father worked in the sugar cane fields in what is now Disneyworld.

The Florida Cracker Trading Company and the Florida Cracker Kitchen bring you into a unique and in-depth experience of the old heritage of making cane syrup. Besides making the syrup for everyday consumption on the table it was a community gathering and event to bring families and friends together. Please join us and enjoy this video on making sugar cane syrup the old fashion way.
