A major project of past-president Larry Golashewski was for the club to supply 6 benches for the new Smithton Pollinator & Wildlife Habitat. The habitat will aid the Great Migration of Monarch butterflies north from Mexico and their return to Mexico.
Club members, greeted by member and Smithton Council President Fred Foster, far left, visited the habitat to tour the habitat and view one to the benches the club donated.
