Rotary starts Spirit of Service award

The Trussville Rotary Daybreak Club has created an award to recognize the community service of its members.

The club's first quarterly "Spirit of Service" recipient was Marty Adams. He is very involved in the community, as evidenced by his almost 360 hours of service from June to September. He serves Full Life Ahead, an organization for families with disabilities. Adams recently assisted with its "Run for Hope," which raised and matched over $80,000.

In February, Rotarian Ryan Benson was presented the award. Some of Ryan’s activities include serving as a board member at his church, coaching little league baseball and Upward basketball, leading kids' church, serving as a member of the Trussville Redevelopment Authority, and setting up/working the Rotary tent at the Christmas parade.
