“Thiswill be a big improvement and
provide much greater efficiency for us
as wewill be able to use the E.G. Nick's
kitchen and all our supplies will be
right on site, not two or three blocks
away. This will just about eliminate
wait time formeals,”Rosevear said.
“This is a family event and this year,
E.G. Nick's will be able to offer beer
and wine with the meals for those over
21 in the tent,” Rosevear said. She
added that Mama Mucci's Pasta donat-
ed the spaghetti and Frank Agostini
from E.G. Nick's was able to help the
club in cutting costs for supplies and
equipment this year.
Proceeds from the dinner will be
used to provide scholarships for young-
sters who have overcome major chal-
lenges in order to graduate from high
school; additional special needs equip-
ment for the students at Tanger Center;
funding for the annual senior
Christmas dinner wheremore than 200
seniors are entertained, other Rotary
community projects and Rotary
Shelter Boxes for Emergency Relief in
places likeHaiti andPakistan.
The Rotary Club of Plymouth A.M.
is one of the youngest service clubs in
the community. Founded in 1996, the
members meet from 7 until 8:15 a.m.
every Tuesday to have breakfast at the
community building at Sheldon and
Junction.
The group focuses much of its local
attention and the majority of fund rais-
ing efforts on assistance programs for
seniors and for youth and children in
the Plymouth-Canton community,
especially those with physical limita-
tions and other challenges. Early in
their existence, the A.M. Rotary adopt-
ed the more than 200 students at the
Tanger School as the ongoing benefici-
aries of the club efforts.
This will be the seventh year for the
Spaghetti Dinner which has become
one of the major fundraisers for the
group.
With this tent, which seats
200 comfortably, we don't
have to worry about it. The
event will go on, rain or shine.
