The club assembled recently to celebrate 45 years of service to our community and the international community. Ken Ulrickson, one of the club's founding members entertained the club and guests with stories of service projects, fund raising events and social activities. Our thanks to our current members, previous members, contributors and the community for a wonderful 45 years and more to come!

The Fountain Hills Community Center is festive once again this year as service clubs/organizations, including our club, who volunteered to decorate a tree.
The Fountain Hills Rotary Club once again organized the Purple People Volunteers for the Fall Festival. Many of the booth participants are solo. Getting a break for life's necessities or to get a snack can be a problem. This year's thirty volunteers, called the Purple People, "booth sit" enabling brief breaks. The name "Purple People" comes from the purple sashes the volunteers wear. The club uses this activity to not only provide a service but as a fund raiser. The festival organizer, the Fountain HIlls Chamber of commerce, compensates the club for this support.
We call it Trash Aerobics! Happiness is, picking up trash along Fountain Hills Blvd while getting an aerobic workout and Rotarian fellowship.
