HAMLIN, PA — The Rotary Club of Hamlin, with the help of a district grant, will hold a Safe Kids Day on Saturday, September 26 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Evergreen School, Rte. 191. Each child visiting at least half of the safety tables will be able to enter his or her name for a chance to win a special prize. There will be free refreshments, fun activities and handouts for the children. Among the agencies attending will be Wayne Memorial Hospital; Safe Kids, Bike Helmets; National Park Service; Wayne County Drug & Alcohol; Wayne County Children & Youth Services; Sprout Dental; and the Wayne County Public Library.

The Hamlin Rotary Club was chartered on June 18, 2012. Since then, the club has initiated and supported a food drive to benefit local pantries and raised funds for the development of Salem Community Park, and has supported many local organizations with donations including Hamlin, Lake Ariel, Ledgedale, Maplewood and Lakeville Fire Companies; the Wayne County Children’s Christmas Bureau; and veterans groups. Scholarships and merit awards have been granted to local students.

The Rotary Club of Hamlin meets Tuesdays at 5:30 p.m. at Bennoco’s Restaurant, Route 590. Members of the community are welcome to attend.
