The New Era - All about Sweet Home since 1929

Sweet Home Rotary Club's Rose Peda, left, donates a check for $550 to Daniia Martyniuk at the Rotarians' May 2 meeting. Rotary members pay "brag bucks" when they "brag" about their own news or others' accomplishments at their weekly Tuesday meetings. The Rotarians decided to donate their April collection to the local Ukrainian family living here in Sweet Home. Martyniuk reported how she and her children are adapting to living in Sweet Home, while her husband remains in the Ukraine. At right is Cathy Brands-Hawken, a friend of Martyniuk's family.
