Rotary members & guests toast 10 years of Rotary Trail!

Rotary Club of Birmingham members gathered with Rotaract Club of Birmingham members, friends and guests for the 10th Anniversary of Rotary Trail on April 16th.

Attendees toasted the club's centennial gift to the Magic City with Frank Stitt's signature "Trailopolitain No. 10" cocktail & mocktail, Back 40 Beer, selections from International Wines, Milo's Tea & Buffalo Rock sodas.
