Thanks to the generous support of First National Bank, the West Bay Rotary annual Shred It! event was another rousing success. Over $2,000 was raised at last weekend’s event hosted by Midcoast Recreation Center.

“We’re so grateful to First National Bank for its continued sponsorship, and thanks, too, for everyone that helped us achieve our fundraising goal,” says event coordinator Tom Albertson. “Each year the club makes donations to various charities and non-profit organizations from the net proceeds of all our fundraising activities. With everyone’s help, we continue to make a positive impact on our communities.”
