President Tony distributes books to the graduates
Rotarians, Bernadette Bagley, Roger Davis, and Murray Ray joined President Tony Morris to celebrate students graduating from the Montecito YMCA preschool program. Parents and friends cheered for the graduates as they sang songs celebrating their time at the preschool and signaling their excitement at moving to the next stage in their education.
As part of Rotary's Youth Literacy initiative, our Club presented each graduating child with a copy of Dr. Seuss' book, "Oh, The Places You'll Go" which many opened immediately and began reading. The graduates' enthusiasm made it a feel good event for all involved.
