Club on the celebration of its Centennial, February 29, 2024; and 3
WHEREAS, A one hundredth anniversary is a distinctive milestone, 4
and it affords the opportunity to acknowledge the remarkable 5
philanthropic work done by the Barberton Rotary Club. An outstanding 6
affiliate of Rotary International, the organization has a long and 7
distinguished history of civic service, including supporting such 8
projects as the playground at McCafferty Park, the sensory room and 9
outdoor equipment storage shed at Barberton Preschool, the disc golf 10
course at Tuscarawas Park, and the signage on the Towpath Trail, and 11
through its numerous initiatives, it has helped shape a brighter 12
future; and 13
WHEREAS, The diligent efforts of people such as those affiliated 14
with the Barberton Rotary Club, both past and present, are one of many 15
reasons that the State of Ohio continues to grow and prosper. Through 16
their involvement with various beneficial programs and activities, the 17
members of this praiseworthy group have not only had the chance to 18
express their personal talents and skills, but they have also helped 19
to better the lives of those around them; and 20
WHEREAS, The many individuals who have supported the Barberton 21
Rotary Club are, indeed, to be commended for their foresight, 22
dedication, and selfless donations of time, energy, and ability far 23
beyond what was required or expected. These fine Ohioans have 24
displayed initiative and concern for others, and they have left a 25
lasting impact on the area; therefore be it 26
