Bob Cowan invited his fellow Lawrenceville Rotarians to look back at the history of this particular club.  He provided a list of the former presidents and the founding members of the club and highlighted memorable events of these seventeen years.   In the 1970s there was one Gwinnett County club, but beginning in the 80s, several communities started their own clubs, Peachtree Corners in 1981, South Gwinnett  in 1983,  Duluth in 1986, Snellville in 1990, Buford in 1994, and Lawrenceville in 1997.  With thirty charter members, the club has generally maintained between 30 and 40 members over the years.  Initially the group met as a Monday breakfast club at the Flying Machine at Briscoe Field but later moved to the Little River Grill and then the Corner Stop Cafe and later to Garden Plaza.  In 2005 they changed the meeting time to noon.   Noteworthy events included the controversy over including women members early on, with the first president, Jo Ann Pinder, being a trailblazer.  Bob remembered the fund-raising adventures at the Concession Booth at the Bell South Golf Tournament.  He, along with Judy McDaniel and other charter members, are working to compile historical information in a format which will be easy to pass along to new presidents and will help preserve the history of our group.
