Past Club Presidents
The Burley Rotary Club would not be here today were it not for the 100+ volunteers willing to serve in leadership positions over the years. It is through their willingness to serve, dedication to Rotary ideals, and a love for their community and world that our club has thrived and been such an influence for good.
Thank you to all of our club officers who have served! Many are unsung heroes who work behind the scenes with no motive other than serving their fellow man. That list includes committee chairpersons, club treasurers, pianists, newsletter organizers, service project coordinators, and so many more.
Below is the list of Presidents of the Burley Rotary since inception.
