ROTARY CLUB OF HANOVER FINALIZES TWO CLUB GRANTS

   For the 2023/24 Rotary year, Hanover Rotary supported a Club Grant to provide six park benches for the YWCA Early Learning Center Playground, part of the Borough of Hanover Wirt Park.  

 

 n  Pictured are Rotarians assembling the benches and kids enjoying both the new playground equipment and the benches. The benches are embossed with ‘Rotary Club of Hanover’.

In the current 2024/25 year, Hanover Rotary partnered with Main Street Hanover, sponsoring a grant to purchase equipment enhancing event registration and processing payments, along with a speaker system to be used for community and internal meetings, improving communication and inspiring support for Main Street Hanover. The equipment is labeled with Rotary stickers. 

 In support of Main Street Hanover, Rotarians helped decorate downtown Hanover for the Christmas season.
