Wells named Rotarian of the Year

Peachtree City Rotary Club Immediate Past President Dale Phenicie announced that the honor of Rotarian of the Year for the local club was given to Janet Wells, a local financial planner and investment advisor. The award is presented to a member of the club who has made extraordinary contributions of time and talents to further the projects and organization of the club.  Presently serving as club publicity chairperson, district newsletter editor, and conference coordinator, she also participates in numerous volunteer efforts and other club activities.

Wells, a Peachtree City resident, has been active in the community from her arrival 11 years ago, presently serving on the board of the Fayette Players and Community Theater and is also a member of the Fayette County Chamber of Commerce. She is also a former member of the Peachtree City Airport Authority. 

Responsible for producing the well-known Fayette County Telephone Book, the Peachtree City Rotary Club has an international reputation for being a leader in community service projects. Many local, county and international projects benefit from the proceeds of the ad sales in the phone book each year.

Rotary International, the oldest of the service clubs, was founded in 1905 and has grown from the initial three members to more than 1.2 million members worldwide.
