Tonight Stratford Rotary held its first in person Bingo Night at the Baldwin Center. The event was well attended and everyone had a great time, especially the winners. All attendees were given their bingo cards for the ten games. Prizes ranged from gift cards to $25 to $100 prizes. There was a 50/50 Raffle and the winner of the raffle took home $160. Congratulations to all the winners.
Refreshments and Snacks were available for purchase throughout the event.
Special thanks to the Bingo Committee, Paul and Stacie Tavares, Harold Watson, Dominic Mantuano, Pat Patusky, and Osi Rosenberg. Thanks to the students from the Rotary Interact program at the local high schools.
Thanks to Max Rosenberg, who was the number caller all evening, and who entertained us with his humorous quips during the number calling.
 
 
 
 
Thank you to Rotarian Jim Simon, Stratford's Democratic Registrar of Voters, who explained the Early Voting System and the many issues that the Registrars must overcome. 
This is the first year Connecticut will have early voting.  The dates for the Primary in April will be set around the Easter Holidays. 
Early Voting will be at the Baldwin Center Studio Wing with direct access from 10-6 pm.

Thank you Jeffrey Fletcher for your information presentation on the recently opened Ruby and Calvin Fletcher African American History Museum here in Stratford.

The exhibit is a collection of family artifacts that reflect decades of turbulent times for African Americans in the United States during the period of slavery and the Civil Rights movement. It brings visitors up close and personal which is an experience that many have only read about in history books or seen in movies.

The exhibit embraces the teachings of tolerance, diversity, unity, and educating people that there was a time when imagery played a significant role in how African Americans were perceived. The artifacts and memorabilia may seem to be difficult to view but they are a part of African American history that needs to be told just as much as the triumphs which were made by African American pioneers and trailblazers. 

The exhibit is an opportunity to begin honest conversations regarding a rich and strong history which has historically been maligned. The Images of America exhibit is an experience that will leave lasting impressions and memories.
