Tuesday was a very special day for our Rotary Club and the students of Le Sueur-Henderson Elementary School, as the new Book Vending Machine was dedicated.
Rotary President Cheryl Amundson said it best, in her comments at the dedication ceremony:
โThis Book Vending Machine became a reality because of shared vision and strong partnerships. The administrators and staff at LSH believe deeply in the power of reading to change lives. That vision aligned perfectly with the passion of Le Sueur Rotariansโespecially David and Betty Jo Braun and Connie LeVine and Henry Endresโwho saw not just a machine, but a mission.
Through the generosity of the Le Sueur Rotary Club and the Legacy Fund of Le Sueur Rotaryโand with the gift of the first books to fill itโthis machine is now here for you, our students.โ
Congratulations to all on the realization of this outstanding community project! ๐๐
