Canfield Rotarians, dressed in bright green safety vests and gloves, and at least one in orange prison garb, filled dozens of garbage bags with trash found on the stretch of Highway 46 between Shields and Kirk Roads. Twice a year, club members spruce up this part of the area as part of the Adopt-a-Highway program. We are not the only service organization in the area who participates in such cleanups, but we are the only service organization whose cleanup team is organized by the head of the Green Team, Jim Petuch.

On Friday, the 25th of September, the South course of Mill Creek Golf Course was a dangerous place to be. For on that day, nearly 30 intrepid golfers from the Canfield Rotary club challenged this Donald Ross design, and some actually played rather well. The winning team was a family affair: Ray McCune, Sr. and his wife Ruth and Ray Jr. and his wife Julie. After golf, we enjoyed a great picnic at the home of Paul and Juanita Sherba.

The winner of our Shopping Spree raffle, donated by Poland Rotarian Henry Nemenz of IGA and Save-a-Lot grocery stores, had a great time and filled two shopping carts. Cindy Byrne of Brookfield managed to collect $535.62 worth of groceries in two minutes, with a little coaching and cheerleading from Sam Boak. We want to thank Henry for his continued support of the community, and we want to thank all of the people who helped to sell the raffle tickets.
