First of all we would like to thank you for your past support of the Marcellus Rotary Club either through your generous donations or attendance to our fund raisers. Through your support the Marcellus Rotary Club has helped our local schools with building improvements, special equipment, scholarships, and financial aid for special needs. Locally we assisted in bringing the first Habitat for Humanity home to Marcellus. Internationally we have been part of Rotary International's drive to eradicate polio, provide clean drinking water to underdeveloped countries and train young leaders in understanding other cultures. Join us on Monday evenings at 6:00 pm for dinner at Porkshop's Diner on Main Street in Marcellus.

Marcellus Rotary makes Bainbridge a lifetime member 2010







Spotlight 6 29 2010
We had a special meeting tonight at the Cordell and Kay Jones family center on Cedar Lake. Every member was in attendance along with special guest; Wilbur Breasmen, Randy Baker, Angie Baker, Schug Beach, Bob Harvey and his son Jim and Kay Jones to honor Bob and Carol Bainbridge.
Bob has been a Rotarian since 1944. He has been past president, as well as chaired several committees and most recently; Bob was our Rotary Hero at our district conference in Kalamazoo in May.
Bob and Carol have decided to move to Fountain Place just off West Main Street in Kalamazoo, MI.
In his remarks, Bob acknowledged that President Andrew Abrams has chaired his last meeting as our club president and congratulated Andrew for a job well done. He also acknowledged Jim and Vickie Hosbein for bringing him to club meetings over the pat few years.
We the Marcellus community thank Robert and Carol Bainbridge for their example in serving a community.
The Bainbridge's have celebrated 63 years of marriage and raised their four children in Marcellus. Their dedication and commitment to education, agriculture, fostering world peace and the eradication of polio worldwide have left an impression to all who know them. They are also well known Spartan fans!
We will miss seeing Bob on a weekly basis. Carol assures us that Kalamazoo is not that far away, they may be able to visit once in a while. We wish for a smooth transition to their new home.
