Farmington Rotary's April 12 meeting will once again honor some worthy Farmington youth during our monthly students-of-the-month recognition. We will recognize senior Percy Buckner from Farmington High School and fifth-grader Shelby Van Hecke from Akin Elementary School.
In addition to our students of the month, Farmington Rotary also has a tradition of honoring a senior citizen. April's honoree is Darline Lehmann. Joy Lauterbach from Trinity will introduce Darline.
Join us at noon at Celt's in downtown Farmington to hear how these amazing people so generously give of their time and talents and live out the Rotary motto of putting Service Above Self. Guests are encouraged to attend this inspiring meeting.
