| FOR OUR COMMUNITY |
| CHILDREN'S BOOK PROJECT Every year we collect books and donations for the book project. In the spring we give about 200 books to Kindergarten students in Taylor. We would like to see this project expand to other towns in our area. SCHOLARSHIP Every year our scholarship committee works with an area school counselor to select a graduating senior who is planning to major in Education. In June we present the recipient with a $500 scholarship. COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER SERVICES WCRTA encourages members to volunteer in the community. At the June luncheon we recognize the member who serves the most hours. Local unit hours are recorded and sent to TRTA in January. TRTA presents the governor with a check representing the dollar value of the hours TRS retirees have donated. It is useful when lobbying legislators. |
