Club Presidents
The President of the Aberdeen Rotary Club is elected by the members of the club to guide its affairs during a one year period of service. As President, these leaders faithfully executed the office of the President of the Aberdeen Rotary Club and to the best of their ability gave support and assistance to the District Governor and to Rotary International all while upholding the constitution and bylaws of the Aberdeen Rotary Club.
Paul Harris Fellows
The presentation of Paul Harris Fellow recognition is The Rotary Foundation’s way of expressing its appreciation for a substantial contribution to its humanitarian and educational programs. It is named for Rotary’s founder, a Chicago lawyer, who started our organization with three business associates in 1905.
A world of peace and goodwill comes closer to reality thanks to the Paul Harris Fellows of the Aberdeen Rotary Club. These members gave a gift of $1,000 to The Rotary Foundation. It is because of gifts such as this that The Rotary Foundation can carry out an array of programs that achieve beneficial changes in our world: Improved living conditions, increased food production, better education, wider availability of treatment and rehabilitation for the sick and disabled, new channels for the flow of international understanding, and brighter hopes for peace.
Rotary Log Pavilion
The Rotary Log Pavilion is located in Morrison Riverfront Park and rests on the banks of the beautiful Chehalis River. Without doubt, it has proven itself a worthy showcase of our community.
While it was donated to the City of Aberdeen by the Aberdeen Rotary Club the 5,400 square foot Rotary Log Pavilion was truly a community project. First started in 1986 on the vision of Rotary Club members Bob Swedblom, Jim Stamateau, John Earley, and Mel Flavel the project required almost 6 years to complete.
