Service clubs’ bell ringers hard at work – Brockport Rotarians and former club members (in italics) are shown as some end and others begin two-hour shifts at the Brockport Walmart Store entrances; L-R: Eric Jensen, Jon Seiler, Brandi Reis, Pam Kimmel, Fred Kimmel, Deb Clare and Doug Clare. Rotary shared the Saturday after Thanksgiving task with Lions and Kiwanis. Each club will staff their own Saturday before Christmas with Rotary drawing December 16. Both Mahan’s Liquor Store and Walmart are appreciated for their support with the the bell ringing activity. Please note that over 90 percent of the moneys donated remain to do good in the local community. Provided photo.
The Menear’s bring the whole family to bell ring – Rotarian Linda Menear and spouse Brad believe in getting the children involved. “It is never too early to start.” Provided photo.
Former club presidents ring bell – L-R, John Egan, Brad Mitchell, Art Appleby and George Dahl take their turn with the Salvation Army bells in front of Mahan’s Liquor Store. Mitchell has honchoed Rotary’s effort for the past two years, filling the big shoes of Dahl who did it for many years. Lots of anxiety occurs over finding the people to staff three exits for all those 2 hour shifts. Rotarians remember staunch supporter and super volunteer Jack Mazzarella, who passed away this year.
