Morgan's Wonderland

She enjoyed meeting Rotarians from other clubs and had fun passing out candy to the cute visitors! Here she caught up with these lovely volunteers from the North Central Rotary Club. All the visitors to the park had a wonderful time despite the rain. Thanks to all who donated candy for this event!
