Proud to be a NH RotarianI want to take just a few minutes to say thanks to everyone who came and helped pack meals for Kids Against Hunger. We had a great and energetic group. it was so fun to work with over 35 kids from the After School Program. We had a lot of others helping us from businesses and from BH. Everyone worked together so well and we packed close to 17,500 meals.
