The Trussville Rotary Club inducted another new member at its Aug. 11 meeting. This is the club’s fourth new member in only six weeks.
Jim Trull transferred to this club from a club in Montgomery. He grew up in the Huffman/Center Point area and graduated from Huffman High School. From there, he graduated from Auburn University with a degree in marketing. Jim has been in the insurance industry for more than 25 years and currently works for Inspirien Insurance Company, a company which insures hospitals throughout the state. He has been married to his wife, the former Lisa Reynolds, for 33 years, and they have three children who played soccer and cheered in Trussville. He is the proud Pop of two beautiful granddaughters!
The Rotary International motto is ‘Service above Self,’ and this club lives out this motto by serving the community in many ways. Proceeds from fundraising events, including the coordination of a golf tournament for more than 25 years, go toward the club’s many projects. Those projects include leadership opportunities for local high school students, Dr. Seuss books for local elementary students, ribbons at City Hall in recognition of Veterans Day, lunch for campers and staff at Smile-a-Mile, trees planted at Civitan Park and more. The club has recently funded the new clock tower in downtown Trussville, benches at the walking track at Cahaba Elementary, and playground equipment at The Mall in historic Trussville.
The Trussville Rotary Daybreak Club meets at First Baptist Church Trussville on Wednesday mornings at 7 a.m. For more information on the Club, or to help with one of our projects, please ‘like’ us on Facebook (Trussville Rotary Daybreak Club) or email Diane Poole at dianepoole1225@centurytel.net.
