LOVELL — The students at the New Suncook School here have brand new swing sets, thanks to the hard work of the members of the Fryeburg Area Rotary Club.

Students and staff held a Swing Project Celebration in the New Suncook School cafeteria Friday afternoon, in order to thank the Fryeburg Area Rotary Club for its donation of the swing sets that include a wheelchair swing.

Danny Charles and crew donated the excavation work of the 32-foot by 76-foot area, Sonotube placement, leg placement for the swings and leveled the area and provided the mulch. Henry Hudson of Henry’s Concrete in Harrison donated and poured the concrete, while Jonathan Bliss was the consultant on the drainage for the swing project.

President Wendell Webb said, “The Rotary Club of the Fryeburg Area is honored to have worked on this project.”
