WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On April 15, Rotary members showed up at Louison House with supplies and tools, ready to get their hands dirty.  

 

They built a sandbox, cleaned up the play area for the upcoming season, planted flowers and repaired a worn-out play set.

 

"Rotary members are people of action.  Our club raised funds and used matching grants from Rotary District 7890 to buy the materials needed to spruce up the playground," Susan Clarke, Rotary Club of Williamstown President said. "Then we had more than eleven members and friends show up and get the project done.  We're glad to help provide the kids at Louison House with a great play area to enjoy."

 

Rotary members from Williamstown have long supported the community through a range of service projects. Members have also purchased and installed shelving for the Williamstown Food Pantry, helped to replace the commercial range at the Berkshire Food Project, and contributed windows and appliances to local Habitat for Humanity homes.
