Check out this pic of our club from the 1920's or early 1930's!

It includes a woman by by the name of Virginia Mae (Brown) Patterson.

Women were not allowed into Rotary until a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling in 1987 (Later, our beloved Kelly Coley was the first female president of the Gallatin Rotary Club in 1995).

At our Feb. 21 meeting, Charles Moffett said she was a pianist, and Ed Mayberry said she was his music teacher through grades 3-5. If you listen to Ed sing or play any kind of instrument, she had to work really hard at her job.
