Rotary Club Celebrates Outstanding Year with WHS Interact Club

The Rotary Club of Winchester proudly celebrates the incredible accomplishments of the Winchester High School Interact Club this year. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the outgoing officers—Lila Beauchamp, Grace Farina, Krystal Nguyen, and Regina Perez—and to their dedicated advisor, Mrs. Tracy Troiano, along with Rotarian club advisor Paula Michienzi, for their leadership and commitment to service.

Interact is open to all high school students who are passionate about making a difference through volunteerism and community engagement. We look forward to another great year ahead!

Passing of the Gavel 2025

The Rotary year has come to an end, and we recently passed the gavel from outgoing co-President Kurt Heisler to incoming President Rebecca Brennan-Laird. Here's to a successful 2025-2026 year!

Thank you Golf Committee!

We cannot thank everyone on the golf committee and the fearless leader, Grant, for another successful golf tournament!

Here are a few pictures from the day: https://winchesterrotary.org/photoalbums/2025-photos/

We had a record number of golfers and a beautiful day of sunshine. Excellent support from sponsors! The silent and live auction was a huge success, so thanks to everyone who organized and donated!

Thanks again!!

Winchester Library Support - Museum Passes

Rotary sponsors museum passes as an excellent service to the community. It's one of the first things the libraries mention to new library users and is featured on the first page of our welcome brochure. They are so grateful for the Rotary's support!

Our museum pass program enables library patrons to visit eighteen local museums, parks, and attractions at a discounted rate. These passes are an especially popular offering over school vacations and summer break. In 2024, WPL patrons made 1,659 museum pass reservations, and nearly 700 of those were for the five institutions supported by the Rotary: The Peabody Essex Museum, the Institute of Contemporary Art, the Trustees GO Pass, The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, and Zoo New England. Most of these passes are delivered via email, making it easier than ever to access these wonderful resources!

Global Scholar Speaker

This past week, we welcomed our Global Scholar, Carina Stone, to share about her current studies and programs at Harvard Kennedy School.

Thanksgiving Baskets for Council of Social Concern

Following our lunch meeting, these volunteers gathered for a meaningful service project: packing Thanksgiving baskets for the Council for Social Concern. The Club donated over $1500 to fill the baskets, and thank you, Rich Mucci, for shopping!

With the holiday season upon us, it was heartwarming to see the dedication and teamwork of our members as we assembled baskets filled with essential holiday items. These baskets will be distributed to local families in need, ensuring they can enjoy a festive and comforting Thanksgiving meal.

Wishing everyone a joyful and generous holiday season!
