January 27, 2022 - We love hearing classification talks from our members! Today we heard from Past President Mary Chapman. Mary moved to PTC when there were only 300 families here. She was the 3rd woman to be allowed into our club and was one of our 4 female presidents that our club has had in our 50+ year history! We are looking forward to our future female presidents in 2023-2024 (Amy B) and 2024-2025 (Patti K)! Thanks for your presentation today, Mary! Your story and passion for service is truly inspiring!

November 12, 2021 - With the help of a Rotary District 6900 Grant, we hosted a REVERSE Job Fair with over 30 employers and 10 veteran (or veteran spouse) job seekers on Friday morning. A few job seekers have interviews scheduled for Monday. What makes this job fair unique is that the job seekers are the ones who have the booth. They shared memorabilia from their military experience, interests they have for their future careers, and employers were able to get to know the job candidates before discussing the potential positions. We are thankful for the opportunity to mentor job seekers to prepare them for this event. The Eden Project, Peachtree City Christian Church, and Fayette Chamber of Commerce were also integral partners to make this event a success.
