Guest Speaker
Sr. Member Carroll Stafford introduced Exec. Dir. Jim Nute, Mayhew Program, to the club. Mayhew is a character building program that encourages the positive social, emotional, physical, and behavioral development of at-risk New Hampshire boys to help them become happy, successful, and contributing members of our communities. Moreover, Mayhew serves as a lifelong support community for them as they mature. Jim Nute presented a videotape of the boys recreating at Camp Mayhew on Newfound Lake. Sr. Member Carroll Stafford noted that we are invited to visit the camp during the summer. For more information go to
mayhew.org.
