Join Rob in the water or simply plan on joining the fun of watching him plunge on Sat., Feb 3rd!
Please join Rotarians, Interactors, Rotaractors and friends of our 47 clubs who raise money and plunge in the waters off Long Beach, Gloucester on February 3, 2018. This event is one of the most personally fulfilling, fun and rewarding events of the year. If you are interested in plunging with Rob, please let him know.

A Message from Judith...
A good chunk of this good news is from the efforts of Rotary worldwide: "Thanks to better access to clean water and sanitation, the number of children around the world who are dying from diarrhoea has fallen by a third since 2005" ~ BBC
January 23rd Postponed!
As you know, The Landing Restaurant in Marblehead has suffered water damage from a burst pipe. They will likely be closed for a couple of months. Consequently, the Scholarship Dinner we had scheduled for January 23rd will be postponed to a date yet to be decided.
