PINWHEELS TO PREVENT CHILD ABUSE

Members donated the pinwheels in 2012 in observance of Prevent Child Abuse America. April 16 is the big pinwheel day in 2013 but the observance lasts for the month of April and the pinwheel is the symbol for this cause. Anyone can place pinwheels in their gardens or add to the ones placed by the club. Children are our most important asset and we need to do what we can to protect them.
