Rotary Club Service BEEs Perform Well at Trivia Fundraiser
The Stoneham Rotary sponsored a team at this year's Trivia Bee, a fundraiser for the Stoneham Business & Community Educational Foundation. This group of local business leaders awards grants to Stoneham schools, PTOs, and other nonprofits for educational endeavors. The event was held at Robin Hood School on Friday, March 27.
Team Rotary, dubbed the "Rotary Club Service BEEs," finished an impressive fourth out of 25 competing teams, scoring a 37 out of a possible 45. Team members Dr. Bruce Doyle, Carol Dresser, Maureen Canova and Steve Rotondi were joined by a last-minute addition. No word yet on whether the gentleman was a ringer that propelled them to success.
The members also got into the excitement of the event by purchasing tickets for the many raffle items that were available. Bruce, Carol, and Maureen all went home with items won.
Stoneham Rotarians Chris Nolty, Amy Palmerino, Dennis O'Hara and Craig Celli also participated in the event, but on teams other than Rotary's.
In the true spirit of Rotary, our members managed to help raise funds for a worthy local organization focused on education, while learning a few things themselves and having fun in the process!
