#8 Powhatan (7600)




Who are you...THE ROTARY CLUB OF POWHATAN!!!!

By far the most energetic and enthusiastic club to date! I loved the way you start your meetings and the mascots: Elmo for the Rotarian of the month, the Gofer for the table with the most Happy Dollars and the dreaded football for the table with the least Happy Dollars. The energy at this club was simply amazing. This is not your grandfather's Rotary Club to say the least.

This club is only 1 1/2 years into it's charter, but you would never know that by attending a meeting here. Having more than doubled in members, I was able to meet the next new member Ryan who not only adds youth but height to the group at 6'9" he towers over President Bobby. Who by the way I have asked to speak at my club when I am up for the program, in the middle of February I believe.

There are lots of activities and fundraisers going with this club and one of the interact clubs has 150 youth! Now for the food, this restaurant boasts a 92 year old matriarch who still picks her own berries for her pies. If you want some good food definitely go to County Seat in Powhatan. The blueberry muffins just melt in your mouth!

I was a pleasure to come to Powhatan and happy to have gotten there without incident today.

The meal cost is $10 and a member met that for a total of $20! Thank you
