Our annual Lobster Bake at the home of Henry Saunders on Sebago Lake was well attended again this year. Nearly 60 people joined the fun, chowing down on lobster or steak, corn, and potatoes, along with various salads and desserts. While we dodged a few raindrops right at the start, the sky cleared and we enjoyed a great night of fun and fellowship.

During the festivities, President Deb Shangraw gathered us around the flag pole for the Pledge of Allegiance and a prayer lead by Past President Bill Chadick. Past President Bill then presented a Paul Harris Fellow to Henry’s daughter Lesilie Saunders McManus. He also presented a Paul Harris Fellow to Kenneth Saunders, the late son of Henry and Marjorie Saunders. Henry proudly accepted the award on his behalf.

A huge thanks to the Saunders family for again hosting our lobster bake and for their generous support of the Rotary Foundation. Also, thanks to Dan Willett and Nelson Harmon for organizing, Walt and Ellen Stinson for cooking and Mike Foley for taking care of the steaks (and watching over the steak knives!).
