Welcome to Rotary

Holiday merriment continued last evening as specially designated Santa’s helpers continued wrapping gifts for 109 area children who will awaken on Christmas morning to lovingly wrapped holiday packages. The workshop was hopping!

Thanks to our merry group of Rotarians and Beta Sigma Phi friends who were on the scene at Hurley’s Auction Center to sort our BIG SHOP into tidy “family bundles.” Thanks, too, to Kaleb and Matt Hurley for their embrace of the Toys for Children project and use of the center as our headquarters. What an incredibly satisfying experience among friends!

Members of The Rotary Club of Waynesboro and Beta Sigma Phi Sorority swept into Waynesboro’s Walmart in the early morning hours to satisfy an important mission as specially designated Santa’s helpers. With detailed wish lists in hand as assistance from Walmart Associates, Santa’s special helpers combed the aisles looking high and low for baby dolls and basketballs, puzzles, games, art supplies, remote controlled cars, stuffies and all variety of “FUN STUFF!”

Santa’s helpers will reconvene over the next couple of weeks at Hurley Auction Center where they’ll sort and wrap toys for each child in preparation for Santa’s big day. ... See MoreSee Less
