Paulding County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the Rotary Club of Paulding County for their generous donation to the Paulding Cops for Kids, Inc. Christmas shopping program. On hand to present the check to Sergeant Ashley Henson was Rotary Club President Jeb Gordon.

Paulding County Rotarians recently completed an amazing local project. We applied for and received a competitive district grant to help feed hungry children in our county during the time schools were closed for Covid-19.

To give a brief history of the event, 8 years or more ago the club put together the idea of having a football season kick-off, to hear from our coaches. A chance for them to tell us what is going on in their programs and mention some of their players. It has been a great program over the years and we were not willing to give it up this year.

Ford Thigpen welcomed the guests to the club meeting and expressed his pride in continuing this event for the ninth year, and gave special thanks to Jason Freeman, Athletic Director for Paulding Schools. Joining us today we have Coach Van Spence from Paulding High, Coach Billy Shackleford from East Paulding, and joining us for the first time Coach Jason Nash from South Paulding.

Watch this club Grow and Serve!
