Mark Blade became a Indianapolis Rotarian 2003. Mark is a Rotarian “because of my love for mankind and because I passionately believe that it is my purpose in life to make a positive impact upon the lives of other people. Leaving foot prints in the sands of time is the legacy of Rotary and more importantly for me as a Rotarian.”
