Happy Mother's Day
Happy Mother's Day to all our Rotary mothers.  Enjoy the day!
Big Congrats to Jenn Rogers
Congratulations to Immediate Past President Jenniffer Rogers on her graduation from Southern New Hampshire University on Sunday.  Jenn graduated from college while working full-time in a new position with a new employer.  During the time she was in school she also served as our President during the COVID year.
 
What an accomplishment!

District Wide Day of Service May 21
Our District is organizing a District Wide Day of Service on May 21 to clean up areas along the Ipswich River.  Two of the spots are in our immediate area of Reading and North Reading.  The Ipswich River's headwaters originate in Reading.
 
If you can help, please contact Tim Kelley.
 
Here are the details from Past District Governor Joan Arsenault on the area to be cleaned up in our area:
 
9am to 12pm Spring 2022 Rotary Club Ipswich River Landings Work Day:  approximate teams of 4 people per site.  The goal of this project will be to support our River Warden program by helping to prepare canoe/kayak landings on the Ipswich River for the paddling season via picking up trash, pruning and cutting back vegetation, and checking the condition of kiosks and signage at the following landings:
 
a. Woburn St., Wilmington and Mill St., Reading; and
b. Central St. landing and shopping Center, North Reading.
 
I'm looking for 4-6 people or more to help with some clean up.

Arbor Day Tree Project
 
This Arbor Day Reading Rotary distributed tree saplings to every 5th Grader in the Reading Public Schools.  This year’s tree is a hawthorn which is a lovely flowering tree.  Reading Rotary has been giving out trees annually to Reading students for over 30 years. Thanks to KC Latham for heading up this project.  It was great to return to this project after a pandemic caused hiatus.
 
Rotary partners with the Town's DPW to package and distribute hundreds of trees.  Rotary's sponsorship of this annual project is part of Reading's designation as a Tree City.
Volunteers Needed for Town Day June  11
We will be participating in the Lion's Club Friends and Family Day (a/k/a Town Day) on June 11 from 10:30 to 3:30.  We will be giving away cotton candy.  If you can help, please contact Sheila Clarke or respond to her email.
