It was an exceptional day for the Newtown Rotary Club at the annual district awards and installation luncheon today. For the second year in a row we have the honor of receiving the Edward T. Osterman for the Outstanding Small Club (45 and under) of the Year Award. “Small” but we are mighty! A huge congratulations to Newtown Rotarian David Z Freedman for being officially installed as District Governor Nominee (DGN) for District 7980. His dedication to Rotary and to the tenet of “service above self” has earned him this distinction and our club the honor of having yet another member be chosen from our ranks to serve as a future District Governor.

What a great night at our annual Pass the Gavel celebration inducting our new club President Neil Chaudhary and some of our members receiving Paul Harris awards.

Neil was also the recipient of the very prestigious Frank Miles award which honors the Rotarian who quietly makes the club successful through consistent, dependable, and selfless service.

Our club recognized Newtown Savings Bank for there longtime support of our club and the community.

We were grateful to have a visitor join our club from Kanazawa Rotary Club Japan 🇯🇵 who also came to bring his daughter home after spending 10 Months as a youth exchange student with our club. It was an amazing Rotary Year under the leadership of now our IPP (Immediate Past President) Jennifer Chaudhary- 🙏

It’s been five years since we started the pollinator planting project at the fruit trail at Fairfield Hills. Tonight we added 28 more pollinator plants taking us over 150 plants planted in those five years. It looks, smells and feels wonderful to be among these plantings. Best of all - the bees love it. Take a look as you stroll by and be on the lookout for our rotary signs delineating our garden. We hope you enjoy!
