The Clark Rotary Club took the Rotary has Heart campaign, literally to heart! Clark Rotary President, Tom LaBrie latched on to the campaign by coming up with an idea and pitching it to his club.
     The idea was founded around Valentines Day. A perfect match with Rotary Has Heart. New member, Margaret Grimm is manager of the Senior Golden Living Center, Member Janet Roehrich is the owner of Roetell Senior Living Center, and Gayle Wookey is owner/manager of the Wookey Assisted Living Center. All three of these Rotarians stepped up to making arrangements in their Centers for the event.
 
     Gayle Wookey arranged the ordering of Valentine desserts which included decorated red velvet cupcakes, and a variety of cheesecakes, all provided by the Rotary Club. Rotarian Dala Albright did all the shopping for Bingo prizes which included heart shaped candies of all kinds.
     New Rotary member LuAnn Warren is superintendent of Clark Schools and she arranged the 5th and 6th grade classed to be bussed to each of the three locations. The kids called bingo, assisted residents with their cards while sitting at their tables and handed out prizes. And of course, everyone enjoyed the desserts and beverages.
     Two to three Rotarians were stationed at each facility as well and directed the Bingo event. Included in the event  were Rotarians Mark Tracy, Greg Furness, Sandy Hovde and the others listed above. And the public was invited to attend as well. Dave Boehnke from the Rotary Club went to the three locations and took the photos. With the collaboration between the local newspaper, the three senior care facilities, the middle school children and administration, the Clark Rotary Club displayed to the community that Rotary truly does have Heart!
