Century of service

Members of the Wayne Rotary Club are
celebrating the 100th anniversary of the
founding of the club by performing one
service project per month. The January
project was distributing a dictionary to
every 3rd and 4th grader in the City of
Wayne. Because of the pandemic, the
teachers will distribute the books this
year. Next year, Rotary members said
they hope to be back in person present-
ing each child a personalized dictionary.
