  • Sunrise Rotary Club Honors Essential Workers

    Service Above Self Even in the midst of a global pandemic, some jobs just cannot be put on hold. That includes what the Montgomery Sanitation Department does. Every week, some 70,000+ customers receive twice a week pickup service from these essential employees. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that as a result of COVID-19, many Montgomery residents are finding themselves home 24/7 and, they’re creating much larger volumes of trash. They’re pulling weeds outside. And perhaps, as we all go a little...

  • Rotary Club Trip to Cuba

    Cuba has received heightened scrutiny over the last few weeks because of questionable remarks made by presidential candidate Senator Bernie Sanders (D Vermont) endorsing some of the late Fidel Castro's people programs implemented when he overthrew the then existing government by force in 1959 and replacing it with a Communist state that still exists today. The tensions between The United States and Cuba have culminated in the current US embargo of many of our goods from ever reaching this Caribb...

  • Veterans Day...

    World War I – known at the time as "The Great War" - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of "the w...

  • From The Book Shelf

    Staff Writer

    GO SET A WATCHMAN By Harper Lee PAGE 103 CHANGED EVERYTHING. Or did it? In the end the self righteous Jean Louise proclaims to Atticus, " I think I love you very much". But wait a minute. Everyone has said Atticus is a racist. How can Jean Louise love this turncoat? The much anticipated sequel of Harper Lee's novel To Kill A Mockingbird flew off the shelves around America.

I was created by the...
