Visiting Rotarian, Tom Barnes along with his wife Vicky were our guests on Sept. 14 as Tom discussed his Rotary Club "Shoes For Kids" Project 
They distributed Shoe vouchers for every school in the county for kids in need of shoes.  This year they gave about one thousand $20 vouchers. 
To fund the project their club did a letter writing campaign and cookie dough sales. Grant requests were also available. With the help of their signature parade float,  and their passion for providing shoes to children,
this  meaningful and rewarding project has cemented friendships within the club.  It has also helped them to recruit new and younger members into the club.
