The History of The 24 Club
The "24" Club was organized in 1942, during WWII. It originally was a Pilot Club, but members decided they wanted all their money to be used locally. Their motto was "Serve in Silence". When their main money raising project, the Charity Ball, became so large, they decided the community deserved to know how the money raised was being spent for charity. So, the club started publicizing their activities and projects.
The main fundraiser for the Club is now the Annual 24 Home Tour, which takes place every June.
