Spring of each year, are donated to local philanthropic causes and are also awarded in the form of grants to local exceptional high 
school seniors. 

SIERRA MADRE ROTARY SENDS HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS TO LEADERSHIP CAMP 

This year these young people told 
Rotary after their return from 
Lake Arrowhead weekend, this 
was a life changing 

experience. They had no idea 
how quickly they made new 

lasting relationships, created 
trust and learned to be a team 

in 2 days. They also stated the 
food was great. Rotary of 

Sierra Madre sends High School 
Juniors and 8th graders 

to leadership camp every year 
through an application 

and selective process. To learn

THE REEL DEAL: by Ben Show 
X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST 
SCHOOL DIRECTORY 
For me, this movie lookedvery interesting for two reasons:
Bryan Singer was back as the 
director and the entire X-Men 
team was being reassembled.
This movie had a lot it needed to 
do, most importantly, reset theX-Men timeline after the events 
of ‘The Last Stand’, and it did 
that very successfully. 

When the X-Men are faced 
with the threat of Sentinels, giant 
robotic beings that targetmutants and parents of potential 
mutants, they must figureout a way to stop them withoutphysically fighting them. Theirsolution: have Kitty Pryde (Ellen 
Page) send Wolverine (Hugh

Jackman) back in time to the 70s, when the Sentinel programwas first created by Dr. Bolivar Trask (Peter Dinklage), and stopthem from ever being made. 

While the plot may seem confusing and convoluted, themovie makes sure you understand what it going on before itbegins the amazing action sequences. This movie does so manygood things for the X-Men series, like setting up events that maytake place in later movies and introduces the villain for the nextfilm, X-Men: Apocalypse. This is by far the best film in the series 
so far and should be seen by both fans and newcomers.
