Hershey Medical Center, spoke to the club on 1/4/2012 about her experience as a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar (2008-09). She told the club about her home country of Argentina, herself, and the process of becoming an Ambassadorial Scholar. She thanked Rotary and the many people who have helped her achieve one of her main goals of becoming a research scientist. She how has many research papers and a number of awards. Her research is focused on the molecular mechanisms that regulate the expression of the human surfactant protein A genes and their variants. This research seeks to find better strategies in the treatment and prevention of pulmonary diseases in the preterm infant.

Pictured above is the Water Project team (kneeling) during their sendoff from Harrisburg International Airport about 5:30 a.m. on August 21, 2011. They are surrounded by family and members of the Mechanicsburg Rotary Club. The team members (left to right in their Living Water T-shirts) are John Petrie, Morgan Petrie, Amanda Schneider, Katelyn Clark, Christina Ulrich, and Frank Ulrich. The team returned on Sunday morning after driving a rental car from Atlanta when their flight to Harrisburg was cancelled.

Pictured is the Water Project Team and the community as they celebrate the completion of the well on Saturday morning a few hours before their departure to return home.

"Welcome to Mechanicsburg" sign

The sign has been completed. A dedication ceremony
was held on Sunday, Sept. 10, 2006
on North York Street near the new sign.
In October 2008 the back of the sign had lettering added
and the landscaping was completed.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the success of this project.

Memorial funds have been  given in honor of two of our dear friends and Rotarians, Richard Wevodau and Carolyn Snyder. The funds were  to landscape around the sign and add the lettering to the back of the sign (completed).
