On the evening of August 14, 2025, the Lawrenceburg Golf and Country Club served as the venue for a Multi-Club Social event, organized by the Lawrenceburg, Pulaski, and Pulaski Evening Rotary Clubs. During this gathering, Rotarian Stacie Odeneal was honored for her exceptional contributions to The Rotary Foundation. The recognition was presented by Eddie Allred, the District Foundation Chair, alongside District Governor Chris Williams. Odeneal received her Fourth Level Paul Harris Fellow recognition (PHF+3), a testament to her ongoing generosity towards Rotary’s global humanitarian and educational initiatives.
The Paul Harris Fellow distinction, named after the founder of Rotary, acknowledges individuals whose financial contributions support vital projects, including efforts to eradicate polio, provide clean water, promote literacy, and deliver disaster relief. This recognition highlights the significant impact that dedicated members like Odeneal have on communities around the world.
The evening’s program not only celebrated Odeneal’s achievements but also fostered fellowship among Rotarians from various parts of southern Middle Tennessee. Attendees engaged in inspiring discussions centered on service and the importance of community involvement.
For those interested in joining the Rotary movement, the Lawrenceburg Rotary Club holds its meetings every Friday at noon at Lawrenceburg Rotary Park. Rotary International, with a membership exceeding 1.2 million individuals, is committed to humanitarian service, ethical leadership, and the promotion of goodwill and peace across the globe.
