Our community service committee co-chairs, Maureen Casey and Rhonda Prodzinski, have helped oversee our club’s service projects for this Rotary year, and it has been quite a productive year. We have conducted an average of one project per month, with a wide variety of projects to appeal to club members’ interests. We have provided many opportunities for our members to be engaged as we’ve become a project-focused club, and we hope club members in the future will invite others to participate in our service projects to learn more about us. A big thank you to all of the club members who helped organize or work on projects this year! Check out the activities below that have kept us busy in the community in the 2020-21 Rotary year:
