九色视频 鈥 The Rotary Club of Easton, Maryland is fulfilling Rotary鈥檚 motto of 鈥淪ervice Above Self鈥 in preparation for its centennial in 2021 with the launch of an improvement project and new construction at Easton鈥檚 Idlewild Park.
The pavilion renovations and creation of a new Rotary Centennial Flags for Heroes Court are being done in recognition of the Rotary Club of Easton's centennial in 2021. The Rotary Pavilion was the club鈥檚 gift to the town鈥檚 residents when the club celebrated its 75th anniversary in 1996.
The Rotary Pavilion has become a gathering spot for community members and faith organizations to use for numerous events since its installation in 1996. The pavilion鈥檚 six columns represent Character Counts鈥 Six Pillars of Character, which are trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship.
This is the first initiative in a year-long commemoration of the club鈥檚 centennial, with a formal dedication of the completed project planned for 2021.
The project addresses poor drainage issues around the current pavilion and adds a new, lighted flag court that includes a new paved area, memorial bricks and benches. The new features will be located in the area stretching from the pavilion toward the existing flags at Idlewild.
The project is made possible through charitable donations in recognition of Easton Rotary鈥檚 centennial. Donors include Rotary Club of Easton members, Flags for Heroes donors, Easton Rotary鈥檚 Youth & Community Fund, Rotary District 7630, local businesses and other generous individuals.
Easton Rotary is working in partnership with Town of Easton Engineer, Rick Van Emburgh, and the Town of Easton鈥檚 Parks and Recreation Director Lorraine Gould for this project.
鈥淧rofessional landscape architect and Rotarian George Corey is volunteering his services and heading the project on our end,鈥 said Easton Rotary Centennial Chair Ron Flohr. 鈥淎nd we鈥檙e very grateful for the in-kind donations from organizations including Willow Construction, who helped provide supplies so that many of our freshman Rotarians could paint the pavilion late last year.鈥
A centennial time capsule of Rotary memorabilia collected since the Club鈥檚 1921 beginning in Easton is planned for the new flag court.
Construction of the new Rotary Centennial Flags for Heroes Court and pavilion improvements are set to begin Sept. 1, and continue through the end of the month.
The Rotary Club of Easton, Maryland is the world鈥檚 first Rotary Club in a town of fewer than 10,000 people, with nearly 100 members committed to the Rotary motto of 鈥淪ervice above Self.鈥 Easton Rotarians are part of a global network of more than 1.2 million Rotarians who are changing lives in their communities and around the world.
