Fryeburg's Rotary Club Citizen/Student of November

Fryeburg's Rotary Club Citizen of the November
 
Congratulations! Lauren.....
 
The Rotary Student of the Month is a student who continually gives within the school community to make it a better place. Being polite is part of who they are and how they treat others. They embody the character strengths that are a focus within the school every day. They are a dedicated student who puts forth their best effort in all their work, frequently looking for ways to improve and exceed expectations. This student is the first to volunteer when others need help and is sought out by their peers because of their calm way of helping and explaining things.

This student volunteers at the PKA afterschool program with students in K-4 and is involved in field hockey, helping her team accomplish an undefeated season! In the last game, she even volunteered to play goalie when the team was in a pinch. The 5th Grade Rotary Student of the Month is Lauren Lapoint.

Learning about Avesta Housing

AVESTA HOUSING......

Our mission is to improve lives and strengthen communities by promoting and providing quality affordable homes for people in need.

The Affordable Housing Crisis

Affordable rental homes continue to be in short supply, and renters face high and ever-rising costs.

There is no state or county in the U.S. where a renter working full-time at minimum wage can afford a two-bedroom apartment. Housing availability has shrunk to record lows while rental costs have increased dramatically. The magnitude of the affordable housing crisis we are currently facing calls for bold and innovative solutions. Avesta Housing is working to meet that challenge.

For more information visit................     https://www.avestahousing.org      

Fryeburg Rotary Area Rotary Club welcomes Avesta Housing to our meeting this past Tuesday.      This subject is a crisis that we all need to hear about and help work towards creating solutions to minimize this problem.        

Avesta Housing is a non-profit affordable housing provider for 50 years.     Avesta has been developing and preserving affordable homes for people in need and also providing essential support services to help those residents thrive.     Avesta operates 100 properties throughout Maine and New Hampshire and provides homes to more than 4,000 people every day.

Sara Olen is the Vice President of advancement at Avesta Housing.   For 7 years, she has guided the non-profit organization in resource development, internal and external communications and public relations.  

Lauren Turner is an associate development officer and has worked at Avesta Housing for over 1 year.

Thank you for a very informative and important subject that affects our local communities.

Allan Lothrop is Remembered and Honored

HONORING ALLAN LOTHROP A FREYBURG RESIDENT WHO WAS A MEMBER OF THE ROTARY CLUB
 
 
The Fryeburg Area Rotary Club held a dedication ceremony on Tuesday, Nov. 15th. at the Fryeburg Recreation center. The Club commissioned a bench in memory of deceased fellow Rotarian Allan Lothrop, who passed away in June of 2019. The ceremony was attended by Rotarians, Allan's daughter and son in law and friends of the family.
 
Allan was a longtime member of Fryeburg Area Rotary Club, a quiet man with a passion for Rotary and its mission.    Allan was a Fryeburg resident who worked in the forest products industry as a key figure in the Forest Industries plant in Fryeburg and operated a dowel factory in Waterford.   Many present shared fond memories of Allan.
 
Also attending was Bob Hatch, a sign maker who lives in Fryeburg and generously did the engraving on the bench.
The bench, a beautifully handcrafted piece of furniture, was built by Chatham custom woodworker Silas Eastman, of the Chester Eastman Homestead.    Unfortunately, Silas was not in attendance.
A huge Thank You to Silas and Bob for their generous contribution.
