Rotary Dunk Tank Makes a Splash at  4th of July Festivities for Sixth Straight Year  The Sierra Madre Rotary Club again provided its "famous" dunk tank on Sunday, July 4th from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm in Memorial Park in Sierra Madre.  Your favorite community leaders, dignitaries and VIPs got plopped into the water as people lined up to toss balls at the dunk tank target.  All proceeds from this “fun raiser” will be applied towards community projects throughout the year.  Click on a photo below to see it larger.  Here's the list of those that were scheduled to be dunked.
