Claude Thompson, PDG, New Generations Chair
By nurturing youth, Rotarians can provide the skills young people need to succeed as future community leaders. Youth Programs provide Rotarians the opportunity to develop their own leadership and communication skills and also provides for many incredible moments!
"What guides us is children's response, their joy in learning to dance, to sing, to live together. It should be a guide to the whole world." ~ Yehudi Menuhin (1916-1999), American violinist and conductor

"One hundred years from now, it will not matter what my bank account was, how big my house was, or what kind of car I drove. But the world may be a little better, because I was important in the life of a child." ~ Forest E. Witcraft, American Scholar, Teacher and Scout Leader, 1894-1967
