The Rotary Club of Canton recently celebrated a successful year and welcomed its new leader, who has a unique connection to the organization. Francisco Lozano, the club’s new president, first joined the Canton club as part of its Georgia Rotary Student Program in 2002. From Mazatlán, Mexico, he attended classes at Reinhardt University for a year through the program and experienced American culture and hospitality through club meetings, his host family and the many club members with whom he developed friendships.

The club meets at noon Tuesdays at the Cherokee Conference Center at The Bluffs, or at off-site locations for community service projects. For more information, check Facebook or www.therotaryclubofcantonga.org.
