Some of the projects that the Caribou Rotary Club completed this past year included donating money to the new playground equipment at the Hilltop School, new roofs on the dugouts at the Sincock Street ball field, and the annual bicycle helmet giveaway to third graders.

Bleess said the Rotary Club is considering ways that they contribute to the new school project that is slated for Caribou. “As our Rotary Club has always been a strong supporter of the youth in Caribou, this project is a perfect match."

Bleess said the club is always accepting new members and if anyone is interested in learning more about the Caribou Rotary Club they can find more information online, at the club's Facebook page, or by sending an email to caribourotary@gmail.com.
