Club Steps up to Refresh Township Roadway Banners

October 27, 2020 by Tim Ernst Leave a Comment

The Springfield Township Rotary Club’s latest project involved “refreshing” the Township Roadway Banners that they had funded over 10 years ago and time and weather had taken their toll on the previous banners. With the assistance of the Township’s Highway Department the new banners were ordered, printed, and hung on light poles mainly up and down Bethlehem Pike during October 2020.

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.

2014_Dist.Gov
Springfield Township Rotary Club had a very special Guest this week, Gary S Fedorcha District 7430 Governor 2014-15. Gary met with the Rotary Board and then joined the Club for their regular meeting. He invited the club to strive to reach his goal for the Rotary year, to Light Up Rotary thru Education. Membership Retention and an Increase in Recruitment and well as contributing to the Foundation were highlights of his speech. When Rotarians give to the Foundation, funds come back to our District for matching grants to do good in our own communities. Also honored were Rotarians Bonnie G. Ostrofsky and Bill Piszek with their 4th Paul Harris Pins. When a Rotarian reached $1,000 in contributions to the Foundation or are gifted recognition points from the Club they are honored with a pin.

Busy Meeting Celebrates Past Projects and The History of a Local School

February 27, 2014 by Tim Ernst Leave a Comment

John Hayden from Antonelli Institute was the speaker recently at a Rotary Club Meeting where he explained the Institute is celebrating 75 years of history teaching students the visual arts. Below is Club President George Schaefer and John Hayden. The Rotarians also presented a check for $1000.00 to Face to Face, a local facility and organization that offers a Dining Room, a nurse managed Health Center, a Legal Center, a Social Services Center and Children’s Summer Camps and After School programs.  We also have a Washeteria where people can take a hot shower and receive a new set of clothes.  Face to Face serves 2,500 annually and has been a stable presence in Germantown for over 20 years. They also recognized Honorary Rotarian Joe Bonus for always being willing to help in Rotary Projects.

More Information:

The club recognized Bob Ryan for donating the chicken for the MLK Day lunch at Face to Face. Because of the efforts of Mike Creeden from Sandy Run Country Club, most of the food for the luncheon was donated. This freed up the money that the club allocated for the luncheon to be able to present a $1,000 check to Face to Face. Additionally, the club was able to donated 2,000 toiletry items for the washeteria.

Because of his monumental work on the Springfield Rotary projects over the past years, the Rotary Club presented an Honorary Membership to Joe Bonus.

Program: John Hayden, Director of the Antonelli School of Photography located in Springfield Township presented information about the school, its programs and most of all, its successful alumni. The school was founded in 1938 by Severo Antonelli. His work is exhibited in the Woodmere Art Museum. The school is accredited by the Association of Career Schools and Colleges and authorized to award Associate Degrees. Its distinguished alumni include those whose works have been featured on Sports Illustrated, Time Magazine and National Geographic to name just a few. The school motto is “Develop Passion-Design the Future.”
