NEWBERRY — Every year, the Rotary Club of Newberry does something special for the children of Boys Farm and Thornwell. Typically, that includes a gathering where the children can come and get a toy, and have lunch — with lots of cookies.

Due to restrictions with COVID-19, the party could not take place. Instead, Rotary Club members brought in plenty of cookies which in turn were taken back to Boys Farm and Thornwell, for the children to enjoy.
