 Lake Mahopac Rotarian Greg Amato in this program tells about several of the community activities he has been supporting since his retirement as police chief of the town of Carmel. He has been in Rotary for 25 years and works on his club\\u2019s annual fundraiser of raffling off a new Corvette, a practice the club has maintained for 35 years. The proceeds of the raffle all go to support community projects by nonprofit groups, many of them part of the medical support of the county. Another event that looms big for Greg and for the community each year is the 4-H Putnam County Fair, the only 4-H fair in New York State that is its own separate enterprise\\u2014winners in each of the 4-H categories will go to the New York State Fair in Syracuse. Greg also has worked a lot for Rotary District 7210 and for RadioRotary, handling communications and websites. Another activity brings together Rotary with the local Lions and Elks clubs to support the Red Cross by manning emergency shelters.
