Rotary Club of East Hartford Presents New Bookmobile to Town

On May 22nd, over 80 local dignitaries, Rotarians and assorted guests attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Town's new Bookmobile at Freightliner of Hartford's showroom at 222 Roberts Street, East Hartford. The Bookmobile Project was a collaborative effort by the EH club and District 7890, the Rotary Clubs of Central Calcutta and Calcutta Maidan and their District, Goodwin College, Freightliner of Hartford, Joseph Merritt Co, and a Matching Grant from The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International. The Bookmobile will be a critical component of delivering books and other media to the town's residents during the renovation of Raymond Library, and continue its literacy programs far into the future.
