At our most recent meeting...
With our scholarship awards, we strive to honor to the Rotary International motto of “Service above Self.” To do so, we award scholarships based on an applicant’s need and their record of service tp the community.
A total of $6,500 in scholarships was given to nine area high school graduates.

Congratulations to all!
Happy/Sad Bucks
Julie had a happy buck for her Ice Cream social next week at the Star Drive In with Vested Interest in K9s.
John B. had a happy buck for our scholarship recipients, a happy buck for being at the meeting today, and a happy/sad buck for officially having moved to the cape and having is Wrentham house on the market.
John D. was happy to have recently celebrated 14 years of marital bliss, happy to have spent four days in Maine recently, sad that his work and home air conditioners broke during a heat wave, but happy that he knew someone who could fix both of them the same day!
Ed had five bucks for the recent adventures with animals he has been having. He saw a baby fawn in Home Depot right before going to New Hampshire where he had a bear and her cubs under the deck of his vacation rental!
Zulmira had a buck to share that after the fawn was done at Home Depot, it went to AHS!
Jody had a happy buck for our scholarship recipients.
