Donald Stewart, Rotary Club of Centerville, Centerville, OH
Members of our Rotary Club will visit the public and private schools in the Centerville/Washington Township area and distribute the dictionaries to third graders and the thesauri to fifth graders. We have done this for 4 years. Great project, kids love the books.

For the last three years we have been participating in the Guys Read Program at Bayside Elementary School in Virginia Beach. Our lodge members volunteer to read to children and we also participate in related events. The kids love us when we show up with the dictionaries. We enjoy the positive response from teachers and students.
