This is our second year. We had more fun going to the schools and talking to the children. They got so excited, you’d think they been given their favorite toy. We think it’s great. Keep up the good work.

I have been on the committee for three years. I think this is a marvelous project. The children who receive these dictionaries are thrilled to receive them.

Cutbacks in spending at all levels of government place more burden and costs on parents and teachers to supply educational needs to children of all ages. Our Lodge participation started just this year, and, hopefully, it will continue next year. Having a personal dictionary for use by each student at school and at home will enable them to learn how to use the dictionary... Read More

This is our 4th year in the program. The 3rd graders are always waiting for the presentation, as they have heard how much fun last year’s students had with the presentation. It is always a contest to see who can find the new word first or a fact about a former president. The trick is to make learning fun.

This will be our third year for the program. Our local club is only 3 years old, so we have been doing this project since we were organized. Great project for both the students and the club.

This will be the third year we have done the dictionary program and are happy to be expanding the schools we will be giving the dictionaries to.

One Madill teacher asked us to buy a dictionary to give to each 4th grade pupil to take home and call their own. We enjoyed doing it and have now expanded the idea to the only other school/town in the county at the 4th grade level.

Thank you for everything. This program has turned out to be an extremely popular project for the Waupaca Rotary Club.

We have been donating the dictionaries to all of the 3rd grade students in the local and surrounding schools as far as 130 miles away since 2001. That first year, we gave a dictionary to every child from 3rd to 8th grade, so no-one was left out. We believe this program is one of the best, most productive projects we do each year.

I think we have been doing it for about 8 years. The students always enjoy getting the dictionaries and the teachers are pleased as well.
