Club members spent a few hours on Saturday morning, June 15, 2019, enjoying the spring cleanup at our Pete's Playground at Goodwin Court Apartments in Falls Church. This playground was our club's Rotary Centennial Project in 2005, in memory of Past President and Past District Governor Pete Petro.
Thanks to everyone who came out to help -- including Rex Hayes' son Stephen, now a rising sophomore at WVU, and prospective member Lindsey!
