Last Friday, the recipients of the Washington D.C. Rotary Trip took over the meeting and ran it in true fashion. They experienced an amazing trip and explored the Nation's Capital all provided by funds from Rotarian donations. These fine young people shared how this trip was a game changer in so many ways. They not only learned more about the history of this nation but also gained new lifelong friend connections with all schools in Obion County being represented: Obion County High School, Union City High School, and South Fulton High School.

Today at Rotary, we will here from those students who were chosen for the Europe trip. Look for those pictures in the near future.

A 21-year educator at Bethel University, she is in her 16th year of leading domestic and international travel. She is no stranger to the Union City Rotary Club as she is a huge participant in the high school travel programs to Europe and Washington D.C. Union City is just one of many cities in our area she helps students see the world. She lives by the motto: The World is our classroom. Pictured with Stacie is UC Rotarian Michael Dennison. Dennison states "Stacie is very deserving of the Paul Harris Fellow award. Her accomplishments along with her passion to achieve them are quite evident. On behalf of the UC Rotary Club, we wish her many more years of success as she continues to develop international programs at Bethel University."

It was great having one of Union City's own return to speak to the Union City Rotary Club today. Jon Robinson, who is the senior personnel executive for the Miami Dolphins, shared his past experiences through his early years in football to his current role in Miami. One thing Jon made clear today,...no one will rememeber your wins, losses, and Division titles, but those you encounter will remember how you treated them and made them feel!!

✈️🇺🇸 Homeward Bound! ❤️

As our European adventure comes to an end, our hearts are full of gratitude for the incredible experiences we’ve shared together. From England and France to Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, and Germany, every day brought new sights, rich history, beautiful landscapes, delicious food, and memories that will last a lifetime.

Our students represented their schools, families, and community with kindness, respect, and enthusiasm. Watching them grow in confidence, embrace new cultures, and make lifelong friendships has been one of the greatest joys of this journey.

A very special thank you to the Kirkland Family Foundation for your incredible generosity and unwavering support of this program. Because of your investment in these students, they were able to experience opportunities that will shape their lives for years to come.

We also extend our sincere appreciation to the Union City Rotary Club for your dedication to investing in the next generation. Your commitment to leadership, education, and service continues to make a lasting difference in the lives of our students and our community.

Thank you to all of the parents, families, friends, and everyone who followed along, prayed for our safety, and cheered us on throughout this journey. Your encouragement meant so much.

We’re heading home with full hearts, unforgettable memories, thousands of photos, and a deeper appreciation for the world around us. While it’s always exciting to return home, a part of our hearts will always remain with the places we’ve explored and the memories we’ve made together.

Until the next adventure… see you soon, Tennessee! ✈️🌎⏩🍊🧡
