The first school to get their dictionaries was Sycamore Academy.

Their school has a unique feature where "barn doors" separate the classrooms, and the presentation and distribution was done in class.

Donald Graham Elementary was the next school to receive their dictionaries.
Wildomar Elementary was the final school to get their dictionaries. I had so much fun talking to the kids earlier in the week that I asked to be able to get in a repeat performance; such an honor.
The presentations consisted of telling the kids a bit about the Rotary Club. That we're part of a world wide service organization that has 1.2 million members.
That locally we send high school juniors to a leadership camp (RYLA), we put on the yearly Bicycle Safety Event that is held at Marna O'Brien Park and the tradition of Breakfast With Santa at the fire station... to name just a few things.
The kids read the Rotary's 4 way test, which was affixed to the inside covers:

The kids read the Rotary's 4 way test, which was affixed to the inside covers:
- Is it the TRUTH?
- Is it FAIR to all concerned?
- Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
- Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
