The Tunkhannock Rotarian of the Year was Mary Tempest, fresh from her win as District 7410 Rotarian of the Year. Mary has been ALL-IN when it comes to participating in all club events and activities, been a true mentor, a listener when needed, and a leader. She also has been organizing Food Drives, working on Membership Growth Ideas, working with District events, taking on more responsibilities in the District, even her personal Facebook page has more items promoting the club and the district / events than her own personal accomplishments.
