Club Service Projects

Adopt A Highway

Our clubs serves the community with this project by helping to keep our highways clean. It also helps to build fellowship within the club with a "hands on" project.  Our stretch of Highway is 2 miles of Route 521 starting at the intersection of Route 36/37 (Oakland Nursery) and continuing North for 2 miles (past the JVS North Campus and past the Railroad overpass). Rotarians volunteer to clean the litter along the highway. This is coordinated with the Delaware County Department of Transportation. We are committed to cleaning the highway four times per year. Most clean up days have 10-15 Rotarians participating. John Tombarge is the Committee Chair.

The Dictionary Project
This project is the brainchild of Mary French of South Carolina (www.dictionaryproject.com). She had a vision that every third grade student should have a dictionary of their own.  Her enthusiasm for this project was very contagious, and our club caught the fever in the 2002-2003 Rotary Year, with Sue Hanson as Chairperson for this effort.
