The Rotary Club of Shady Brook will host a dinner on May 9, 2013 at the Hope Lodge located near the Fox Chase Cancer Center in NW Philadelphia.

Hope Lodge provides free lodging for the families of anyone undergoing treatment at Philadelphia area hospitals.
In addition, the Club obtained a piano donated by the Shady Brook community for use at the Lodge to provide entertainment for their guests.

On May 1st they hired a mover to transport the piano to the Lodge site and had a professional tuner set it up so it could be used immediately. The piano was originally donated to the Shady Brook community by Dotti and Mel Gelenberg, Charter Rotary Members and community residents.
