About Leonardtown
Rotary
  • The Leonardtown Rotary was chartered in 1986.

  • Rotary is an international organization with over
    30,000 clubs worldwide. The first Rotary club was
    founded by attorney Paul Harris in Chicago in 1905
    with the goal of promoting ethical business practices.
    The name Rotary comes from the original practice of
    rotating the meeting place among members’ places
    of business.

  • Leonardtown Rotary’s signature local project is the
    “Service with a Smile”, a fluoride rinse program
    promoting healthy teeth for third graders in St. Mary’s
    County schools.  Recently  the club is participated in a
    clean drinking water project in Honduras with the
    Rural Water Association and Rotary International .
    This project provided water to nine villages and
    approximately 2000 people.
