Front Royal Rotary president prepares to retire; makes final awards to local non-profits

At Rotary Club of Front Royal President Lori Glascock’s penultimate meeting of her one-year tenure, two additional grants were awarded Friday to local non-profits which sent the club into several thousands of dollars in awards given this year.

Community cash grants went to the Northern Virginia 4-H Education & Conference Center ($2,000) and was accepted by 4-H Center Executive Director Katie Tennant;  and to the Shenandoah Area Agency on Aging ($3,000). This second award was accepted by Senior Center Manager Misty Alger, who was accompanied by Allison Mondell, the agency’s director of development.
