Tyrone Rotary is involved in “The Dictionary Project,” which is a nonprofit organization whose goal is to improve the reading ability and comprehension of all children everywhere. The Club completed its fourth consecutive year, distributing dictionaries as gifts to third-grade pupils in the Tyrone area elementary schools. Rotarian Michelle Baughman is the “Dictionary Lady.” At the Tyrone Area Elementary School, three pupil representatives from each of the four third-grade classes beam over receipt of their own personal dictionary. At rear from left are Terri Swann, Tyrone Rotary president; Bud Boom, Tyrone Rotary literacy chair; and Michelle Baughman, Tyrone Rotary dictionary project chair. (December 2008)
