Third Graders Receive Dictionaries at Six Schools


During the month of January, we delivered 300 dictionaries to third graders at six different schools. This is an increase of one school over last year and two schools over the year before. We hope that we will be able to add another school next year. Thanks to all who participated in these deliveries.

South Sac Rotary Flexes Muscles

Help was needed on Saturday, December 27 to move a billiards table from Kim and Bobby Williams' storage unit to the Gibbs' house in preparation for the crab feed. Thanks to Markus Dascher, Jim Tracy, Nathan Sibbet, Joe Broadhead, Kim's three sons and her husband Bobby, everything went smoothly, and there were no tired muscles to report.
