Each year the Cambridge Area Rotary holds a Ski, Ride & Winter Sports Sale to raise money for a WINTER WELLNESS program. This program provides the financial support to send all of the 4th, 5th and 6th grade students at the Cambridge Elementary school to Smugglers Notch Resort to partake in outdoor activities such as skiing, snowboarding and snowshoeing. We cover the cost of transportation, lift tickets, lessons and equipment rentals. The sale also helps to provide access to reasonably priced winter sports equipment so that individuals and families can enjoy being outside and experience the wonders of a Vermont winter. All of the Rotarians, teachers and students thank you for supporting our event!
For years, Angalia Bianca had slept in abandoned buildings throughout Chicago. She stole. She did drugs. She spent time in and out of jail for forgery, theft, trespassing, and possession of narcotics. But after she landed in prison for the seventh time, something changed -- Bianca knew she wanted a better life. She just didn’t know how to make it happen.
Throughout India and around the world, Rotary clubs are celebrating a major milestone: India has gone three years without a new case of polio. The last reported case was a two-year-old girl in West Bengal on 13 January 2011. To mark this historic triumph, Rotary clubs illuminated landmarks and iconic structures throughout the country with four simple but powerful words, "India is polio free."
What is it like taking a large team to Africa? It has probably been one of the most rewarding experiences in my life. In mid February, I began leading Rotary members from all over the East Coast of the United States through Ghana. I’ve tried to give the team a warm Ghanaian welcome like I’ve received on my earlier trips. A large trip is a real blessing because each person sees Ghana and our work in a different way..png)
