This week at Rotary - Ryerss Farm
 

Join us at one of Pottstown's best kept secrets!
RYERSS Farm for Aged Equines is home to eighty (80!) retired horses from all areas of the horse world.
Just 15 minutes from Pottstown, it offers a haven for horses over the age of 20 years (about 57 in human years) for the rest of their lives (usually 25-30 years, sometimes up to 36 or 37 years). 

All breeds, all colors, all sizes, all backgrounds. Please bring any horsey-friends and family with you.

Founded in 1888, Ryerss Farm is the country’s oldest non-profit organization of its kind, dedicated to providing a comfortable retirement for horses, which faithfully served their former owners or which were rescued from abusive situations.

Less than 15 minutes from the center of Pottstown.

We'll meet at 5:30 pm for a tour and then some eats.  Although Wednesday is the warmest day of the week (expected 45 deg), dress warmly as we will be outside for part of the evening.

Sign up HERE if you haven't already done so.

Pottstown Rotary Superbowl Pool

The 56th Superbowl is complete - and I don't know anyone who could have picked the scores correctly.

No one had bought the last two remaining blocks and so the Club had to - and #93 was the winning block at the end of the first quarter.

Congratulations to Jen Isett, winner of the 3rd Quarter block and Double congrats to Werner Koller who had the winning block for the 2nd Quarter and Final Score.

Once again - Thank you to everyone who participated in our Superbowl Pool! Your donations will allow the club to do something really good for our community.

Winners will be contacted early this week.

Prizes:
1st Quarter - $300
2nd Quarter - $300
3rd Quarter - $300
Final - $400
