Local Rotarians plant gardens in Henry Law Park
A group of volunteers from the Rotary Club of Dover, NH, spent a recent Satur-day morning planting flowers in the Rotary Garden at Henry Law Park. In support of the City of Dover, Dover Rotarians have wielded shovels, rakes and a good dose of enthusi-asm to create a beautiful vista for all visitors to Dover’s summer attraction.
According to President Michael Rennebu, monies from a variety of fundraisers are dedicated in the Rotary budget every year to continue this project. A hands-on committee of the Rotary Club, chaired by Jessica Cobb, maintains the garden from spring through fall.
Cobb said, “Henry Law Park is such a wonderful resource for the Dover Commu-nity. It is nice to see people enjoying the space as they attend concerts or visit the new Adventure playground. Our Club is honored to play a part in continuing the park’s suc-cess.”
The Rotary Club is grateful this year to Wentworth Gardens for providing dis-counted flowers, to Bob Sherwood Landscape Co. for their donation and delivery of mulch and Dover’s Aubuchon Hardware for donating new American flags for the gar-den.
