The Happy Winner - Judy Merkel

Judy Merkel couldn’t believe the phone call. She won! After many years of buying tickets, Judy and Joe Merkel of Chelsea won the highly prized Dexter Rotary Playhouse.   Even before the playhouse was delivered, Judy purchased playhouse furniture so here grand children could   use it right away.  Judy and friends were on hand to watch the delivery of the Playhouse on a sunny clear Thursday afternoon, June 20, after an anxious morning caused by severe local rains. She’s looking forward to lighting a playhouse Christmas tree and watching it from the house during the winter.

This year’s playhouse a Victorian cottage, modeled after the original St. Joseph Church Rectory on Dover Street, drew record number of ticket buyers.  The playhouse was built by Rotary club members using materials donated by local area businesses.
