February 7 Marked 44th Anniversary of London Bridge Rotary Club
On December 10, 1969, the Parker Rotary Club sponsored our London Bridge Club. Members of the Parker Club met with 3 Rotary District Officers, and all new prospective members at the Valley National Bank to finalize arrangements for the charter.
February 7, 1970 was the charter night. Douglas H Driggs, District Governor of District 549 presented the charter. Duke Doering was the charter President, and continued through the 1970-71 Rotary Year. The club meetings were held in the Flying Carpet Banquet room located on the second floor of the Best Western's Lake Place Inn (formerly Wonella's Restaurant).
