The Rotary Club welcomed Shirley Smith and Vicki Paris from Paulding Christmas to the March 19th meeting. Every year the Paulding County Rotary Club organizes the Invitational Christmas Parade in Dallas. 2018's parade marked the 26th year of the parade in Dallas. The parade benefits Paulding Christmas through the collected entry fees and donations of sponsors. Paulding Christmas Inc. is a non-profit 501-3c volunteer organization whose goal is to provide "new" toys to the less fortunate children of Paulding County. Parade organizers Jackie Crum and Sam Elrod were happy to present a $5000 check to Shirley and Vicki of Paulding Christmas.
