Busy Year! 
This Rotary year from July 2025 to today has been a busy one with additions, subtractions and changes. But one thing is certain – we were busy making an impact on our community. When the 2026 Report to Our Community is on the website, please read pages 8 and 9 very carefully. If you think we don’t have an impact or can’t see what we do, this should make you proud to be a member of Newark Morning Rotary!
Support for Global Grant Scholarship
Members received an email from District Governor Dale Kerns about supporting a scholarship for Simone Minor, a soon to be graduate from UVa. A Bear, Del. resident, Simone has been accepted at Kings College in London to study Maternal and Child Health, one of the areas of focus of Rotary. Because Simone lives in our area, our club has been asked to be the lead club of the global grant application. All clubs and members in our district 7630 are asked to pledge to support this grant. Our club has agreed to $1,000 to support her with several members making personal pledges of nearly $2,000. 
Adopt A Park Cleanup Scheduled
To get more members engaged and be mindful of their schedules, Dan Seador has a monthly signup for trash pickup at the Resevoir, Preston’s Playground, and the new Old Paper Mill Road Park. Each month will have a co-chair who will schedule a team to do the trash pickup, report back to Dan, and take pictures. The signup will be attached in an email to all members. Please reply to Dan.
