A Rotary LOL Moment

Throwing Down the Gauntlet

The T-M Rotary Noon Club has challenged the M-T Sunrise Club to give more to the Rotary Foundation and Polio Plus each year.  The winning club each year will be awarded the Sam Azinger Trophy (pictured above with Potato Salad and a tub full of chicken for scale) until they are unseated as the champion by the other club and must pass the Trophy to the victor along with all bragging rights and pride appurtenant thereto.

In 2018-2019, the Noon Club contributed $5,050 between the Rotary Foundation and Polio Plus, while the Sunrise Club raised $4,950.  Accordingly, what is being named “the Sam Azinger Trophy” (named after Sam Azinger for some reason unbeknownst to everyone other than Sam Azinger), will be proudly displayed by the Noon Club until the Sunrise Club can take the title and the Trophy is passed on.

In defense of the Sunrise Club, the Noon Club contemplated this idea in June of 2019 and contributed accordingly to surpass the Sunrise Club in late June, while nobody actually informed the Sunrise Club that the competition was happening.  We do anticipate a fairer fight in 2019-2020.

Monthly updates on the status of each club’s contributions will be provided in newsletters. Good luck to both club’s and may this friendly competition help advance the goals of Rotary to make the world a better place.
