Rotarians, friends, and family enjoyed a fun summer evening together at Andover Rotary Night at the Lowell Spinners last Friday. While the Spinners may not have had their best night on the field—they were thoroughly clobbered—we certainly had a great time in the stands!
It was a wonderful opportunity to enjoy baseball, fellowship, and some Rotary fun beyond our Friday morning meetings. The score may not have been in our favor, but the company was! ___________________
