Thursday, Nov. 20 & Saturday, Nov. 22
Sort, Pack & Distribute Fresh Produce

The club will meet on Thursday, Nov. 20 at 11:30 a.m. at Second Harvest Food Bank to pack food boxes for this month's fresh produce distribution. After we finish packing, enjoy a box lunch with the team or grab one to go. Please join us!

We'll distribute our fresh produce boxes on Saturday, Nov.22 at Weston Park. Set-up begins at 7:30 a.m., and distribution begins at 8:30 a.m. or as soon as we are ready. November is always a busy month for our produce distribution as everyone is preparing for Thanksgiving and the rest of the holiday season. 

Each month, we distribute more than 25 pounds of fresh produce and a protein to more than 200 community members in need as part of our Big Impact Project. Those who benefit from the project complete USDA paperwork validating their household income before they receive assistance, and often are in line to receive produce before set up begins at 7:30 a.m. 

Whether you’re a seasoned volunteer or trying it out for the first time, we’d love to see you there. Bring your energy, your smile, and maybe a friend or two! Let’s make a difference – together.

Beginning Friday!
Rotary Online Auction

Just in time for the holidays, our second annual online auction will kick-off Friday, Nov. 21.

Bidding will end Thursday, Dec. 4 during our Rotary holiday party. Proceeds from the auction will help fund our club's community service, youth projects and other programs throughout the year.  

We'll share the link to the auction once it is live. Please log in and look around at what is being offered!

How can you help?

Once the auction goes live, please share the auction and/or specific items among your friends and family and your social media network. If you know that your buddy Tina in Wisconsin would love that piece of jewelry – share the link with her! The more people engage with the auction, the better the proceeds will be and the more good work we will be able to do in our community throughout the year.
