It's my pleasure to recognize the attaining of the Eagle Scout rank... A demonstration of commitment, achievement, leadership, and service.
We in Rotary share many of the same values as Scouting; amount them, vision for a better world, honorable dealing with our fellow man, and service to others - in the same way that Scouts promise to serve their God and country, their fellow Scouts, and those in need.
Rotary, like Scouting, is world-wide. Our motto is service above self - A Scout might say, "To help other people at all times." Rotary International" presidents have been Eagle Scouts and many of our Rotary Club sponsor Scouting units.
On behalf of the Rotary Club of Phillipsburg and the International Fellowship of Scouting Rotarians, I'm pleased to present Joseph "Joey" Kiernan who completed his Eagle Project creating a recreational area for America’s Grow a Row in Pittstown, NJ, with this recognition of Outstanding Achievement, and a wish for your future: That you may continue on the path of achievement, leadership, and service that you have today so well exemplified. Congratulations.

Our club is a proud part of this community and of Rotary International. Rotary is a global network of more than 1.2 million members who believe that great things happen when dedicated minds come together. We are community and business leaders representing different professions, experiences, and perspectives with a shared desire to connect with others to address the challenges affecting our community and communities around the world. Partnering with local, national, and global experts to exchange ideas about possible solutions, we draw up action plans to respond.
Since our start in 1938, our club has offered opportunities for our members - and those interested in making a difference - to get involved. Through meetings, social events, and volunteer projects, such as our Golf Outing and Corks & Forks, we raise funds to support both local and global initiatives. Along with these opportunities to serve, members also are able to regularly network, resulting in lifelong friendships and business connections.
