Of the things we think, say and do... 
Although new, our Club already has an active history in the community and beyond. Here is a partial list of projects of which we have been involved. Service Above Self Award Serving others without regard to personal gain or recognition is a key principle of Rotary. It is for this reason why we have instituted a "Service Above Self" award. To be eligible for this award, the candidate must be under the age of 18 and reside within the East Lake / Oldsmar community. This will be awarded monthly to the candidate who best epitomizes the spirit of volunteering and giving to the community.Countryside High School Career Center Along with the Rotary Club of Safety Harbor, we have provided the Career Center at Countryside High School with furniture, computers, and other equipment.Adopt-A-Street Program Our club, in cooperation with the City of Oldsmar and in the spirit of community service, has adopted Saint Petersburg Drive West in Oldsmar and will help maintain the road.Tampa Bay Futures Golf Classic We have been working with The Futures Tour to organize and run this great women's golf tour event March 2005 at the East Lake Woodlands Country Club.
