The District road trip to bring Christmas to Lac Megantic was an awesome success! Santa's reindeer aren't stopped by a little weather, and neither are the Rotarians of this District. The $25,000 raised by clubs throughout the District made it possible to give a teddy bear to each elementary school child in town, to create a "Christmas Bazaar" where parents could select gifts for their children, and to restock the food pantry. Plus, we were followed by the press all weekend long -- and were covered in both English and French for the work that we were doing! Thanks to all the clubs that participated, and thanks to the leadership of Biddeford-Saco club in making this project such a success!
