Four brand new welding mask obtained by Rotarian Beth Mlady and her husband were being tired out by one of the students at Betania trade school. The masks were

donated by Lincoln Electric in District 6630 and will be used by the welding school to train young people to learn a trade in welding.

In the past very little eye protection was used during training. Now they can learn to weld safely protecting their eyes.

Thanks again to Beth and her husband for obtaining these new masks.
