~ To honor the late Past Rotary International Director, Ray Wells, who has been a beacon of light in our clubs, districts, and around the world, we have obtained the permission from Paramus Mayor and related personnel to renovate and rededicate the current Paramus Rotary bandshell to “Raymond Wells Band Shell.” To do so, we have estimated the minimum cost of $5,300. Some initial donations have been made from Rotarians in the Paramus Rotary Club to start the project. Now, we would like to open the opportunity to other Rotarians in the district who love Ray Wells and desire to contribute to this memorial.
If you would like to participate, please make your donation check payable to:
