Keep the Ball Rolling
9?
By James Cuthbertson
Boiling Springs, North Carolina,
lies in the beautiful rolling
woodlands of Cleveland County.
This small hamlet is the site of
Gardner-Webb College which was
host to the first District 767
Rotaract Conference on Saturday,
April 19, 1969.
The delegates from UNC-C at
the conference were Richard
Helms, John Lafferty, Bobby
Young, Oliver Sharmon, and
James Cuthbertson. They were led
by Mr. Charlie Grier, a prominent
man-around-Charlotte, who was
the founder of Rotaract, which is
an international service
organization for college students.
Mr. Richard Helms was
appointed as temporary chairman
of the conference. He was given
this honor because the club here
at UNC-C was the first Rotaract
Club to be chartered in the world.
Therefore, it was only fitting that
Mr, Helms, who is the first
president of the first Rotaract
Club be the chairman of the first
conference.
One of the most interesting
highlights of the day came when
the different clubs gave reports on
their service projects. There are a
total of 69 members of Rotaract
in the four clubs located in
District 767. When as many
projects were accomplished by so
few, it is easy to see why Rotaract
is the outstanding service
organization that it is. Some of
the projects were book exchanges,
work on an ourdoor
amphitheater, a Ride
Coordination Board, campus
beautification programs, car
washes, the sponsorship of Boy
Scout and Cub Scout programs, a
campus golf tournament and the
distribution of discount passes to
students.
One of the service projects of
the Rotaract Club at Western
Carolina stands above the others.
This project was a Beautiful Eyes
Contest which helped a blind
student at Western get a new
braille typewriter to replace one
that was stolen from him. All the
projects were commendable and
proved that the four Rotaract
Clubs of District 767 were
engaged in service projects that
exhibited the ideals of Rotaract.
The other highlight of the day
came when tl;c nominations of
the Publications Board vni
