The Bedford Rotary Club gives out a free dictionary to every 3rd grade student at Bedford Elementary and Big Island Elementary School each year. The students are so happy to receive their very own dictionary to take home each year. Some say it's their first book they get to keep for their very own and that always makes us smile.

The Bedford Rotary Club participated in cleaning up Fancy Farm Rd. on Nov. 16, 2019. Seven club members picked up 10 large bags of trash and a couple of discarded auto parts.

The Bedford Rotary Club conducts the trash pick up several times a year and participates in many other community projects such as providing dictionaries to elementary school students, STEM scholarships to high school students, and volunteering at various non-profit organizations.
