Crescent Rotary Club People of action in Greensboro, NC: service, fellowship & friendship. Learn more: crescentrotary.org We hope you will find it useful and informative.

Welcome to the Crescent Rotary Club of Greensboro (North Carolina) page! Crescent Rotary was founded in 1964. Beyond our weekly lunch meetings and speakers of local interest, our Club has a rich heritage of fellowship and embodiment of the Rotary theme, “Service Above Self.” In addition to raising tens of thousands of dollars each year to support local charitable causes, Crescent Rotary provides considerable financial and hands-on support to international causes such as polio eradication, Operation Smile, and health, hunger, clean water, and literacy causes for poverty-stricken areas throughout the world. We believe strongly in the work of Rotary International, as evidenced by our recognition in 2004 as the first Rotary club in the WORLD to achieve the “Triple Crown Club” status – meaning that our members are:

• 100% Paul Harris Fellows (they contributed $1000 to the Annual Fund of The Rotary Foundation)
• 100% Sustaining Paul Harris Fellows (they contributed $100 or more per year to the Annual Programs Fund)
• 100% Benefactors (they made the Permanent Fund a beneficiary in their estate plans or they made an outright gift of US$1,000 or more to the Permanent Fund). Crescent Rotary members and their families volunteer their time for a wide variety of local and international activities such as Purple Heart Homes, the Greensboro Urban Ministry “Potter’s House,” the Salvation Army “Red Kettle” program, Kids’ Voting, and Greensboro Beautiful’s “Big Sweep.” We also participate in Rotary Shadows Day, working with students from Weaver and Smith High Schools and helping them to learn about various careers. We have continued our commitment to Project Rebuild -- working with the Greensboro-based Rotary Clubs and Housing Greensboro to do critical home repair work for low-income, elderly and disabled home owners. We also enjoy another important component of Rotary International, fellowship and fun! We have a number of fellowship and social events outside of our weekly meetings – including our annual Boil & Bru Fundraiser, outings to local sporting events, club and district golf outings, Holiday socials for Crescent Rotarians and their spouses/significant others, and “Family” socials.

Crescent President Visits the Weaver Academy Interact Club

On Wednesday, October 14, Crescent Rotary President Ed Widman visited the Interact Club at Weaver Academy to introduce himself, learn about the students’ interests and share the service projects Crescent has coming up. During the visit, Ed presented a Crescent Rotary banner to Interact student president Nolan.

Ed invited the students to join Crescent at our first Sweet Dreams bed build on Saturday, November 14, and advisor Amanda Browning reports the students are very excited about it. As advisor Browning put it, “It’s always helpful for the students to hear from someone more ‘official’ than us.”

A Busy Club

Led by student president Nolan and advisors Amanda Browning and Amanda Bergsma, the Interact Club meets the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of each month at lunch. Recent and upcoming activities include:

• Designing and writing cards for veterans on the Triad Honor Flight (at the October 14 meeting)
• 19 students volunteering at the Gateway Education Fall Festival on Saturday, October 17
• Hosting a booth at Weaver’s Unity Day Celebration on Wednesday, October 21, handing out positive affirmation cards and candy
