If you know me I often will sing a tune to express how I am feeling...last Friday morning I woke up with the lyric "Oh what a night..." running through my head, This tune made popular by The Four Seasons in their December, 1963 tune is a perfect way to cap off yet again another successful Citizens Who Care. The fundraising team is still tallying the results but it is looking like we beat last year's numbers for our largest fundraiser yet!
Thanks to so many that made this event a huge success. If I started to list all of you I would invariably miss someone so I will just say - THANK YOU! It was truly a team effort! Give yourselves a round of applause.
While we never want to rest on our laurels we have lots to do! Please check the website for the many volunteer opportunities and events coming up over the next 6 weeks. We are gearing up for our 2nd annual nuBingo music night in the fall so dust off your dancing shoes!
Thank you for being part
of this amazing club!
As we come into Memorial Day weekend, please take a moment to remember all our military personnel that gave the greatest sacrifice who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.
Cheers to Rotary and God Bless America!

We've been busy bees at Andover Rotary
From packaging silent auction items for Citizens Who Care on Tues. & Thurs. May 5th and 7th ...
... to volunteering at Lazarus House on Weds., May 6th to help distribute food ...
A heartfelt congratulations and thank you to all of our Rotarians, volunteers, sponsors, and supporters who made this year’s Citizens Who Care Gala such an incredible success. Despite the rainy evening, 300+ attendees came together to celebrate Andover’s “unsung heroes” and support the Rotary Club of Andover’s charitable mission.
With over 115 silent auction items, wonderful fellowship, and inspiring honorees, the evening was truly unforgettable. This event would not have been possible without the countless hours of planning, organizing, fundraising, decorating, and teamwork contributed by so many dedicated Rotarians. Your commitment and passion helped create a perfect evening and a successful fundraiser that will continue to support scholarships, grants, and community service projects throughout the year.
Thank you for helping us celebrate the very best of our community!
