Yosemite High School Report

Yosemite High School welding students were the first to be served barbecue off the grill they made for the Sierra Sunrise Rotary Club.

Past club presidents Dale Miller and Steve Raupp, who is also YHS principal, barbecued hot dogs for the students in the Regional Occupational Program (ROP) welding class last week to thank them for their work to build the grill and the trailer on which it is towed.

The YHS students made the double grill and the trailer as a class project and as a service-learning project. The Sunrise Rotary Club purchased all of the supplies for the unit.

Barbecues are one of the main ways the Rotarians earn money for their many community service projects. “We’re always cooking,” Mr. Miller said, noting that Mr. Raupp and Chuck Heinbach are the club’s chief chefs.
