Firefighter exchange builds bonds

Posted by Steve Lettau on Sep 18, 2018

By Celia Giay, past RI vice president and a member of the Rotary Club of Arrecifes, Buenos Aires, Argentina

The idea for our firefighter exchange was born when my club received a visit from local volunteer firefighters. Club members listened attentively as our guests explained their dream of continuing to learn better ways to protect their community, and on that very night we set a goal to organize an international exchange to make that possible.

The next day, I talked with our district governor, Osvaldo Lazzati, who immediately liked the idea, but we needed another district and country. So he got on the phone with Alan Cohn, the governor of District 6990 (Grand Bahamas, Florida, USA), who enthusiastically accepted the challenge. And the rest is history.

Upcoming Speakers

Sep 28, 2018

Gordy Haberman - Kewaskum 9/11 Memorial Committee

9/11 Memorial

The memorial, designed by a Kewaskum High School graduate, will for many years to come be a space of reflection for visitors from Kewaskum and Washington County, the State of Wisconsin, and beyond. With a beam of steel recovered from the North Tower of the World Trade Center as its center piece, the memorial will serve to honor not only those who perished, including a Kewaskum Graduate - Andrea Lyn Haberman, but also all those who responded to the atrocity of 9/11.

Some will visit seeking knowledge, while others will come to honor the memories of those lost and to reflect on a day that challenged and changed America yet in its aftermath showed the strength, resilience and compassion of its people. As time passes from the events of 9/11/2001, the memorial will forever give meaning to the words NEVER FORGET.
