Thank you for volunteering and attending the Weston Car Show

Thank You: Volunteers, Car Owners, Sponsors & Attendees!

What a busy and exciting weekend for the Rotary Club of Weston & Wayland!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make the 29th Annual Antique & Classic Car Show such a success. From our dedicated volunteers who gave their time and energy to the enthusiastic attendees who joined us throughout the day, your support made these community events truly special.

We would especially like to thank the many car owners who proudly brought their beautiful antique, classic, and specialty cars to the show. Without your willingness to share your prized automobiles, there simply would not be a car show.  After last weekend's wicked nor'easter forced us to postpone the show, we knew many participants would face difficult scheduling decisions. With other commitments, family events, and competing car shows on the calendar, you still chose to bring your prized vehicles to Weston. We sincerely appreciate your flexibility, understanding, and support. Your dedication to our event did not go unnoticed.

We are also deeply appreciative of our sponsors. Their generous support throughout the year helps the Rotary Club continue its mission of serving our local and global communities. Events like the car show and our community support of scholarships and grants would not be possible without their partnership and commitment.

Most importantly, thank you to everyone who attended. The wonderful turnout, beautiful weather, incredible collection of vehicles, and spirit of community made for a fantastic day. Funds raised through Rotary events support scholarships, youth programs, community initiatives, and humanitarian projects both locally and around the world.

Please join us in supporting the businesses and organizations that support Rotary. Their generosity helps make our service possible.

Thank you all for helping make the 2026 Weston & Wayland Rotary Antique & Classic Car Show a wonderful success.  Click Read More for some pictures.

We will be posting the trophy winners on the car show website by Tuesday, October 6th: Weston Antique & Classic Car Show (www.westoncarshow.com).

Rotary Celebrates America's 250th at the Wayland Festival

In addition to hosting the 29th Annual Antique & Classic Car Show, the Rotary Club of Weston & Wayland was proud to participate in the Wayland 250th Festival on October 3rd. The festival, celebrating America's 250th anniversary, brought together residents, community organizations, businesses, and visitors for a day of history, patriotism, entertainment, and community spirit.

Our Rotary booth provided another wonderful opportunity to connect with the community, share information about our service projects, scholarships, youth programs, and charitable initiatives, and meet both longtime supporters and new friends. Events like these remind us how fortunate we are to be part of such a vibrant and engaged community.

A special thank you goes to the many Rotary members and volunteers who helped make the festival a success while also supporting the Car Show. Pulling off two major community events on the same day took tremendous teamwork, and we are grateful to everyone who stepped up to do double duty. Your dedication, enthusiasm, and willingness to serve exemplify the Rotary spirit.

Congratulations to the lucky winners of our Wayland 250th Festival raffle prizes:

  • Phantom of the Opera Tickets (Value: $375)
  • Terrain Café Gift Certificate (Value: $100)
  • Holiday Flower Arrangement by Joy Viola (Value: $85)
  • 110 Grill Gift Certificate (Value: $50)

Thank you again to everyone who volunteered, donated, organized, visited our booth, and helped represent Rotary throughout the weekend. Your commitment to our club and our community is what makes events like these possible. Together, you helped make both the Car Show and the Wayland 250th Festival memorable celebrations of community, service, and civic pride.

 

Short-Term Exchange Update

Short‑Term Exchange Update/Spain Visit
 
Discovering another culture—and sharing your own—through Rotary’s Short‑Term Exchange Program (STEP). This is a 3–4 week family‑to‑family exchange that pairs local students with a host sibling of similar age and gender abroad. They live with their family while experiencing a new culture and language, and then both return to the U.S., where the student's family hosts them for the same period. A perfect option if they are curious about an exchange but not ready for a full-year exchange.
 
This summer, Irene Rodriguez Regis from Spain and Madeline Young from Weston enjoyed a wonderful four‑week cultural exchange, exploring daily life in the United States together and building a friendship that spans continents.
 
 
 
Their adventure continued on Sunday, July 19th—just hours after Spain’s thrilling World Cup victory—when the two boarded a flight to Spain for the second half of their exchange. They will spend the next four weeks experiencing Spanish culture, community, and family life.  
 
 
We look forward to hearing about Madeline’s cultural experience in Spain at a club meeting this fall.  Given Spain’s World Cup win and the energy of summer celebrations, we’re sure she’ll return with stories full of excitement, learning, and joy.
