Our Rotarian of the Week grew up in Rockaway, New Jersey. Our special Rotarian likes Rotary because it gives him an opportunity to work with a diverse group of people who love serving. He attended Morris Hills Regional High School home of the Scarlet Knights. After high school he attended Morris County Community College and Fairleigh Dickinson University. His first job was caddying at the Rockaway River Country Club at the age of 12 for $6 a day. Today, Mark Radwanski is still in the moving business as the General Manager of Johnson Moving & Storage. Together, he and his wife Cathy have six kids and six grandkids. Mark’s favorite meal is pizza and his favorite dessert is ice cream. In his free time he enjoys fly fishing and traveling with his wife. His most memorable Rotary experience was working on this year’s Palisade Peach Run with Derek Baker. Next to family, his proudest accomplishment was seeing the look on the faces of the residents of the Colorado Springs homeless shelter when he helped deliver Christmas presents each year. Mark has been a member of our Club for over a year when he was sponsored by Carol Rookstool. Since that time Mark has rolled up his sleeves and lent a hand. He co-chaired our Peaches Committee and currently chairs our Invocation committee, arranging for our member invocation each week. In appreciation of his service to our Club, the Sergeant at Arms will present him with a Cold Stone gift certificate and an ice cream scooper.
