GREEN COVE SPRINGS -- With 151 hungry players, guests and volunteers expecting to be fed, the Rotary Club of Green Cove Springs found itself in a quandary Saturday when one of its members was too ill to deliver his grill to cook a case of hot dogs.

Saunders rescued the fundraiser that supported the organization's scholarship fund by sending a grill from the Green Cove Springs store.
