The Azua, Dominican Republic Rotary flag had an interesting story and an unfortunate demise.  Our first Matching Grant project in about 1991 was to send an ambulance to Azua, a town of about 200,000 THAT DID NOT HAVE AN AMBULANCE FOR THEIR HOSPITAL. My son, a peace corp volunteer, was the driving force for the project.  When Charla and I went to Azua to celebrate the project, the Azua Rotary Club did not know about flags as they never had had a guest.  When told about flags, they took a piece of white silk and hand painted a flag that was about 4 times the size the ones we have on our tables.  It was crude but very nostalgic because the effort they made to reciprocate. 

 

Sadly, when one of our members was cleaning out flags and mounting them on large banners we used to have, it was discarded as being inferior to the others.

Mile High Rotary Banner Collection

 

Let's hear your stories!  Our club has a collection of banners from Rotary clubs all over the US and around the world where our club members have visited or we've had guests.  For a full list go to our website:

 

http://www.denvermilehigh.org/AboutUs.cfm  and see the link to "Catalog of U.S. and Int'l Banners Received".

 

The list shows 200 banners from clubs in every state except Delaware, Idaho, Utah, and West Virginia.  Internationally we have nearly 200 banners from 60 different countries.

 

In your travels this summer please take one of our banners with you, visit a Rotary club, and exchange with them.  Let's make our U.S. state collection 100% by visiting clubs in one of those states - Delaware, Idaho, Utah, and West Virginia.  We'd really like to hear your stories of visits to other Rotary clubs.

 

We've been displaying these banners on the tables all year.  They're interesting and every visit encourages Rotary fellowship and interaction between clubs.

 

Happy Travelling!
