Stratford Rotary Club News/Information

for October 7, 2025

 

All club dues are now owed. You must make arrangements with Pat for payment, please.

Annual Dictionary/Thesaurus Project.  
Each year, members of our Club visit the 3rd graders in Stratford to deliver Dictionaries to each student and the 5th graders to deliver Thesauruses.
We like to send two Rotarians to each school, and you will have a lesson plan to share.  We talk a little about the Rotary Club, what we do in our community and worldwide, and the 4 Way Test.  Then we have some fun exploring the features of the dictionary and the thesaurus with the students.  I have the following slots available for school visits (2 for each school).  If you have not already signed up to attend one of these dates, email Sherri ASAP at sszymanski@stratfordlibrary.org to let her know which date you can help:
 
Mon.  10/6  10am  Wilcoxson 
Fri.  10/10  9am  Chapel
Wed. 10/15  9am  Eli Whitney
Mon. 10/20  9:30am  Franklin
Mon.  10/27  2pm Second Hill Lane
Mon. 11/3  10:30am  Johnson House 
Thu. 11/6  9:20am  Nichols
 
FYI Lordship has requested a drop off only, so we will insert activity sheets and a note from the Rotary Club into their books
St. Mark's has not been scheduled yet (soon)
St. James no longer participates in the program (bummer)

 

Thank you, Maria, for planning an excellent Club Social at Dockside Restaurant on Tuesday, September 30th. It was a great night of camaraderie and delicious food. Linda Mannis joined us as a guest.

 

October's Happy Dollars will be going to Polio Plus

November's Happy Dollars will be going to Rotary International
