WAVING DOLLARS

Again this year, Grand Island Rotary, together with a G I Schools committee, had a profitable Meat Raffle on March 7, to raise funds for “Growing Readers’. That is a school/town project to encourage new parents to read to their babies and toddlers, a practice known to get the idea of READING in the heads of youth on their way to education and success.  We remain pleased and astonished, as fellow Islanders wave dollars at us, allowing us to count those dollars for Growing Readers, and for our Rotary High School scholarships, as they go home with meat packages and prizes!  Pictured is new member Mike Malaney and Director Kyle Clayton counting the profit!
