Our recent Lobster Roll fundraiser was a huge success. Over 150 lobster rolls were served. Special thanks to Erik's church for donating the containers and helping us in our hour of need for the cole slaw. McDonalds also donated the chocolate chip cookies and Don Drew, one of our loyal rotary members donated the freshly picked apples.
A donation will be made to the Windham Veteran's Center from these proceeds.
Keep checking our facebook page for our Spring date for the next Lobster roll lunch! Thank you to all who supported our event. Also to the volunteers who helped through out the event and planning process.
Members of the Sebago Lake Rotary Club spend a work service day clearing out brush, weeding and trimming over gown trees and shrubs on Saturday as their way to honor and remember the 9/11 20th Anniversary. A second day to complete the needed work will be scheduled in the near future.

The Salvation Army received a recent donation of $5,000 from the Sebago Lake Rotary Club.
The Sebago Lake and Cumberland County ice fishing derbies are held annually each February to benefit local charities and have been managed and sponsored by the Sebago Lake Rotary Club in Windham, Maine since 2001.
The funds will support children and mothers in need in the greater Windham/Raymond area and will also provide assistance with sending children to The Salvation Army’s Camp Sebago in Standish, Maine.
