The Vincennes Rotary Club sponsored a Charter luncheon at Slicer’s restaurant at the Country Club of Old Vincennes to officially welcome the newest Interact Club into District 6580. Tim Lee, District Governor-Elect was present for the installation and welcomed the students into the world of Service above Self.

Interact is Rotary International’s service club for young people ages 12 to 18. Interact clubs are sponsored by individual Rotary clubs, which provide support and guidance, but they are self-governing and self-supporting. The name of the organization is a combination of “International” and “Action”
