On Saturday night, the Swanton Rotary held a “Name That Tune” event at the Swanton Sports Center to help raise funds for Swanton Local School’s Backpack Buddies Program.  Backpack Buddies is a program found in school districts and communities nationwide that supplies nutritious meals to disadvantage students over weekends when school breakfasts and lunches are not available.  The nutrition provided by these meals, allow the students to return to school on Monday mornings well fed and ready to learn.

The event was sponsored by the local PizzAroma on Airport Highway in Swanton and by the Swanton Sports Center.  A great job of organizing was accomplished by several volunteers and chaired by Stephanie Fessenden and Pat Pilliod.  The funds raised is expected to help more than 40 students in the Swanton Local School District.
