Louise Zawadzki, fellow Rotarian spoke yesterday with Don Heebner, about the clubs joining forces in their mutual involvement in Rotaplast. Adoption of Beanie Babies was greatly appreciated and a fun way to raise needed funds for cleft palate surgeries provided by Rotaplast!
Support of $1000 makes life-changing surgery possible for one needy child in the world. In this way, Rotarians like you are helping us make smiles.
The club is working toward a September mission to Cumana.

Our members had a chance to meet and greet with Interact Club members from Philmont Christian Academy and Springfield Township High School. One student from each school was awarded with the Interact award. This is presented to the student who shows leadership and a genuine desire to help others.
Interact Club members updated Rotary on upcoming fundraisers and the status of past events. Both schools came prepared with a presentation including songs and a clever rap by Philmont introducing each other.
Along with Interact, Rotary welcomed a new member Maggie, sponsored by Amanda Helwig.
Congratulations to all students on their accomplishments who we hope to see back as Rotarians. Rotary will meet next Tuesday at Sandy Run to welcome local Valedictorians.
