In February 2005 the Hartford Rotary Club hosted an evening gala event for
area clubs and friends as one of five Centennial Bells was presented to the
Club for a ceremonial ringing before continuing onto other clubs around the
country.
Every year the Hartford Rotary Club recognizes an individual who has shown
outstanding leadership in the Hartford community. These individuals have
demonstrated consistent leadership in revitalizing and improving the economic,
physical, and social characteristics of our neighborhoods.

| Junior Rotarians |
The Club sponsors two students (a senior and junior) from the three High
Schools to join us at our once a month at our weekly meetings. Each
student is matched with a mentor with the goal of matching a mentor's career
with the student's career interests. The Junior Rotarian program is
designed to offer the students an opportunity to interact with business and
professional leaders of the community.
| International Service |
The Club participates in
Group Exchanges with other Rotary Clubs through
out the world. Our Club has also sponsored students through the
Ambassadorial Scholarship Program.
These programs offers a richly rewarding experience for Hartford Rotarians and counterparts. The most recent group
study exchange came
from India.
