There was no scheduled meeting last week.
We had a fabulous time at the Pocono Environmental Education Center in Dingmans on Thursday evening.
President Dave Yarosh and Stroudsburgs Rotarians presented PEEC with their $2,000 Stroudsburgs Foundation Grant for the Earthwalk Explorer Exhibit.
All the attendees enjoyed themselves walking on the interactive map.
This experience comes to us from the National Scenic Visitors Center to celebrate our indigenous land stewards the Lenni Lenape. Featuring a 128 square foot relief map of the U.S. from North Carolina to New Hampshire, this map is meant to allow guest to walk the trails of the Native Americans of our area. The exhibit also feature Native American Petroglyphs, or painting symbols, that were used for communication and education by the tribes.
