Mud Season Penny Sale was a fundraising success

Dear Editor,

The Ludlow Rotary Club would like to thank all of the businesses that donated to our annual penny sale. This “Mud Season” event held the last Saturday of April is a popular event for our community members. Our local businesses make this event possible. Over $25,000 in cash and prizes was given out in a matter of hours!

The penny sale is the largest fundraiser the Ludlow Rotary Club takes on. Proceeds benefit our high school scholarship program and other community projects. Over $6,000 is given out each year to graduates of students within our clubs service area.

Kimberly L. Lampert

Let’s all pardon the turkey

November 27, 2024
Dear Editor, This week, President Biden will pardon two turkeys at the White House, a symbolic gesture of mercy. Yet, over 224 million turkeys endure a far grimmer fate every year in the U.S. These gentle birds are raised in overcrowded sheds thick with toxic fumes, their beaks and toes clipped to prevent stress-related aggression.…
