The Rotary Club of Paducah was named “Best in District” at the Rotary District 6710 conference May 17-18 in Louisville.

Rotary District 6710 covers 55 clubs in Kentucky. The Paducah club was also recognized as a Governor’s Club of Distinction, based on its scores in the categories of Club Administration, Avenues of Service, Membership, and Rotary Foundation.

Two other awards were presented to the Rotary Club of Paducah during the conference. The club was awarded “Best World Rotary Day Event” for its project of reading to numerous classrooms throughout Paducah and McCracken County. The club’s work supporting the planetarium at Land Between the Lakes received an Honorable Mention in the Best Community Service Project category.

“I was completely humbled and amazed when they called our name at the District Conference in Louisville,” said Club President Dee Dee Whittaker. “It’s a tremendous honor to be part of a club that means so much to the community and that truly represents the Rotary motto ‘Service Above Self’.”

The Rotary Club of Paducah was established in 1915 and meets every Wednesday at noon at the Carson Center in Paducah. The Paducah club is part of a Rotary global network of 1.2 million neighbors, friends, leaders, and problem-solvers who see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change.
