Members of the Rotary Club of Salisbury tonight heard about the Nazi Germany holocaust against Jewish persons from 1933 to 1945 from Salisbury University history professor Maarten Pereboom. Dr. Pereboom, who specializes in 20th century international relations, gave a history of how and why this holocaust began, its implications on Europe, and the long-lasting implications to this day. A very interesting presentation.
Additionally, club members received updates on two major on-going fund-raising projects...the annual raffle with a $10,000 first prize and the annual A Round for the Community golf outing scheduled for September 6 near Salisbury. Net proceeds from each of these activities will be distributed to local non-profit organizations that provide a variety of services to our region.
