Tappahannock Rotaryâs focus this year under President John Gregory is serving our local needs. Our annual Pork Feast and our âStrings to the Heartâ provided funds for the Essex Fire Department Pavilion, Essex Library, The Tappahannock Free Clinic and Tappahannock Police Department. Other donations include Essex High drama, wrestling and physics departments, and both Boys and Girl Scouts.
âAs a Rotarian I have had the Virginians on my radar for a number of years but had no venue that would support such an event.
We are so fortunate to have the beautiful new state of the art high school auditorium accommodating an audience of over 70. Letâs fill it up on Saturday evening April 25.â
