The Pottstown Rotary Club teamed up with local businesses, organizations and volunteers Saturday for a parking lot cleanup and beautification project in the community.

The effort to preserve the Boyertown Community Pool received a major boost Saturday with a $10,000 donation from the Rotary Club of Boyertown.

The contribution was presented to Save the Boyertown Pool during the Rotary Club’s annual Fall Frolic 5K. The money will go toward the organization’s ongoing effort to save the community pool.

Save the Boyertown Pool credited continued community support for helping move the project forward.

The Rotary Club of Boyertown is a nonprofit volunteer organization made up of local business and community leaders. The club has served the Boyertown area since 1925.

The Mercury reports that Frank Dechant Wagner was born in Lower Pottsgrove on Aug. 22, 1893, the son of Tri-County Area Bank president Jonas Wagner, and that he entered the U.S. Naval Academy right after graduating from Pottstown High School in 1911. Published Navy records say he commanded Patrol Wing 10 in the Philippines as the Pacific war opened, later led Aircraft, Seventh Fleet, and retired in 1950, when he was advanced to vice admiral. The Mercury says he was killed in an Alabama automobile accident in January 1966, his ashes were scattered at sea, and his name on the family monument at Edgewood is the hometown link.
