Sharing Christmas joy
Members of the Putnam County Rotary and the Rotary-sponsored PCJH Interact Club were up bright and early on Saturday, Dec. 8. They gathered at the Color Point commercial greenhouse to load more than 700 donated poinsettias that were then distributed to senior citizens across the county. This holiday tradition of more than 40 years is one of the group’s largest and most cheerful activities of the year. FOR MORE PHOTOS, PLEASE TURN TO PAGES 8-9. (PCR photo/Dave Cook)
