InspirationHistory
Organized and chartered on Aug. 1, 1920, Bucyrus Rotary Club commenced with 33 Charter Members.
The club was chartered as No. 760. Its first president, L.A. Dozer, died on Feb. 14, 1921. The treasurer, W.A. Blicke, filled out the balance of the first year as president.
The Bucyrus Rotary Club was sponsored by the Rotary Club of Columbus, Ohio. An article carried by the Bucyrus Evening Telegraph, dated July 13, 1920, states that the Bucyrus Rotary Club was officially instituted by W.J. Longbon, of the Columbus Club, who was designated as the Special Governor in charge of organizing the Bucyrus Club. The article states that 65 enthusiastic Columbus Rotarians came to bucyrus on a special electric car over the C.D. & M. Electric Traction Line for the evening. It appears that a number of Mansfield Rotarians also came for the occasion. The meeting was held as the Bucyrus Elks Club, with dinner at 7 PM.
Although the Bucyrus Club was instituted on July 13, 1920, the official charter was not presented until Aug. 1, 1920, at which time the Charter was presented by Mr. Frank Medick of the Columbus Rotary Club.
