August 18, 2008: Community Service Program


Newport Rotarians used the August 18, 2008 meeting as an opportunity to do a visible and needed community service project in Newport. Through a Rotary Foundation Grant, 2 Park Benches were purchased and installed on Howard Boulevard, one in front of the Rotary Building and the other at the south end of Howard Boulevard near the "Welcome to Newport" and "Rotary Meeting" signs.

This project was started during last year's President Maher Saikali's term and continued into Pres. Cliff Schweitzer's term. Rotarian Amos Parker and Amos Parker Builders lended technical expertise. PDG Bevin Wall applied for the Rotary Foundation Grant.
