It is with the deepest regret
that we announce the closing of
the Rotary Club of Damascus, Maryland.
 
As of 31 March 2008,
after nearly 52 years of continuous and
dedicated activity on behalf of the community,
the club ceased to be.

Upper Montgomery Rotary Club (Maryland)

You are cordially invited to review our club's history
or visit our club scrapbook.

We wish to thank members of the Damascus community and
surrounding communities for their generous support over the years.
