The Laurel Exchange Club presented checks totaling nearly $7,500 to four different non-profit organizations last Wednesday, January 16th, at Sid's East Side Bar & Grill. The club presented the Laurel Big Brothers Big Sisters program and the Family Tree Center $3,433 each that was raised from the Healing Field that was held last September. The club is doing the Healing Field again this year in September in conjunction with Patriots Day. Laurel Hometown Troops and the Veterans Meat Locker received checks of $200 each that was raised from the recent raffle of Adam Gross Photography prints. Each organization receiving funding gave a short presentation about their work after receiving their checks. 
The club also had a guest speaker from Every Child Plays. Project Co-Chair, Carina Deguire discussed plans for the Rose Park Elementary playground. Dequire said their goal is to build an inclusive playground that will work for children with disabilities so they can participate with the rest of the children during recesses.
