The Rotary Club of Wahpeton was pleased to host exceptional students from Richland County High Schools on Tuesday, May 16th, 2017.  Each student was nominated by his or her school to be recognized during our monthly luncheon.  This month we also hosted students from April that had a scheduling conflict last month.

Due to her participation in the inSPIRESS program, Samantha Turley of Wyndmere had to leave the luncheon early and could not be present for the photo.  inSPIRESS is a STEM program that allows students to compete in front of a panel of NASA judges as well as community volunteers to solve various problems involved with space exploration.
