Twenty Four Years of Remembrance, The Hartsville Fire Company 9-11 Memorial

The Warminster community gathered on 9/11/25 at the Hartsville Fire Company to honor all who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks on
the World Trade Center in NY. The attacks claimed the lives of 343 members of the Fire Department
of the City of New York (FDNY), 23 New York Police Department Officers (NYPD) and 37 New York and New Jersey Port Authority Officers. September 11, 2001 is the worst single-incident loss of firefighter lives in history.

In addition to the reading of the names, everyone is encouraged to assist in the retrieval of the flags that are displayed on the front lawn of the firehouse.
Warminster Rotarians gathered on 10/19/24 and 10/20/24 in the field behind Guiseppis & the Ben Wilson Senior Center to plant trees. Funded in part by a Rotary District 7430 grant, the trees planted in this basin were specially selected by the Neshaminy Watershed Association (NWA) to improve our local environment.
Ken Jones, NWA President instructed participants about the different species and how to properly plant them.

The field was marked with various flags to indicate which trees were to be planted and where. 
Holes were pre-augered allowing Rotarians to expand the area and place the saplings. Once set in the ground, the sprouts were then mulched and watered.
This project helps reduce stormwater runoff into the Neshaminy Creek, creates a habitat for wildlife, and beautifies the wetland area. Educational signage will soon be placed close to the basin explaining the project's importance.
Thank you to the partners in this project: Warminster Environmental Advisory Council, Penn State Master Watershed Stewards, Warminster Municipal Authority, and The Warminster Rotary Club.




On May 1st, the Warminster Rotary Club was one of the sponsors for the
Ribbon Cutting of the new Warminster Food Bank.
We proudly presented WFB with a $5,000 donation to help them continue their mission to combat food insecurity.
Congratulations to the Warminster Food Bank on your new location!
The Warminster Food Bank is now located at:
495 East County Line Road
Hatboro, PA 19040
This is not just a bench.No....it's a lot more.
It's in a very special place where children play and learn. Where parents realize love.
Where friends are made, friendships nurtured, and futures dreamed.
It's part of our hometown where memories are made and kept alive.
Two such profound friends were Bryan Benson and Seann Campbell.
Try as we may to validate the pain we endure, even after 30 years, we have hope.
No, this is not just a bench. It's so much more.
Maybe you'll sit on this bench. Maybe you'll pass by and read what it says. Maybe someone will rest for a moment.
Maybe two young children will sit here and share all the stuff that makes for an everlasting friendship. 
This is a beacon of hope.
It's one small gesture toward improving our community and keeping the memory of Bryan and Seann alive.
Karin Suttmann, President of the Warminster Rotary Club 2022-2024
HONORING OUR STUDENTS OF THE MONTH

CARING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
The Warminster Rotary club actively participates in caring for our environment. Pictured here are members planting trees in a local water basin to improve conditions in the township.

CLEAN WATER/SANITATION/HYGIENE
A few hours on a Saturday cleaning up a water basin in the community is a lot more than just picking up trash. It results in Municipal Authority services to work for the community efficiently.

PROMOTING PEACE
Promoting peace is something at the heart of every Rotarian world wide. We apply the four-way test, an ethical standard to the things we think, say or do. Is it the truth? Is it fair to all concerned? Will it promote good will and better friendships? Is it beneficial to all concerned?
