Vashti

Continuing a 103-year tradition of meeting at Vashti on the Thursday before Thanksgiving, Rotary will meet at The Vashti Center on Thursday, Nov. 21. The program will be provided by Rotarian and Vashti Center Executive Director David Sofferin. 

For more than a century, Rotary has supported the work of Vashti with club and personal donations. Club support has varied from financial assistance to project support, and even donated a station wagon to the center once decades ago.

Look for signs on Vashti's grounds pointing you to the dining hall.

Produce Market at Weston Park

Rotary will host a produce distribution at Weston Park on Saturday, Nov. 23 from 9 a.m. until 10:30 a.m., or until all food is distributed. This is one of our local Rotary Club's Big Impact Projects to help make fresh vegetables and fruits available to all.  

We will not have a sort and pack this week, so we will assemble as needed at the park – so please join us to make it a smooth event. 

To volunteer, please arrive by 7:30 a.m. to begin setting up and registering participants.
