The Seward Rotary Club plans to enhance the Rotary Park Pavilion as an environmentally-themed fish and wildlife viewing area for residents and visitors, with interpretive art and signs. We wish to make Rotary Park a recreational destination that attracts and inspires residents and visitors to learn more about Rotary, Rotary’s new focus area, “protecting the environment”, and the history and ecology of Rotary Park.
Roberto Ferrero, Seward Rotary Club's Youth Exchange student from Alghero, Italy, had considerable success when his authentic Italian dinner fundraiser sold out within hours and doubled the expected funds it raised for the Shelterbox program on February 26. "I didn't expect to raise more than $4000 because the past exchange student raised around $2000", said Roberto." I'm really proud to help people in Turkey and Syria that need a big help right now," The event raised money to purchase four Shelterboxes. This international disaster relief charity provides emergency shelter and other aid items to families worldwide who have lost their homes to disaster, war, or conflict. Rotary partners with ShelterBox to help devastated communities.
Looking for simple ways to help protect the environment? Here is one thing you can do just using your phone. Download the Seward Historic Walking Tour Map from the bar code on the window decal at the Seward Community Library & Museum, or the Chamber of Commerce, rather than taking a paper copy. It saves paper and litter in our community. It also saves money on our taxes.
Recycling is just good business. The Seward Rotary Club, inspired by Rotary’s new worldwide focus to protect the environment, has joined forces with Sustainable Seward and purchased 10 new recycle cans for their program. Rotary and Sustainable Seward hope to find 10 businesses along Fourth Ave and in the small boat harbor to adopt these cans and take on the recycling. Rotary is offering these cans for use, which cost about $1000 each with shipping and a heavy-duty decal with your business logo on it that we will design for you to make it easy to get started!
This is part 2 of the story about how Recycling is just good business. The Seward Rotary Club, inspired by Rotary’s new worldwide focus to protect the environment, joined forces with Sustainable Seward and purchased 10 new recycle cans for their program. So far, we have partnered with five businesses along Fourth Ave and in the small boat harbor to adopt these cans and take on the recycling. We also put one can at Rotary Park.
Happy New Year!
This is a great time to look back and see where you, and we, have been, and to think about where we are going. As Rotarians, the 4-Way Test is a great way to do that.
Thank you to everyone who attended, supported, and sponsored Breakfast with Santa!
The event, which was on December 17th at the Seward Senior Center, had 2 seatings and was a sold-out hit, that everyone enjoyed. It was sponsored by the Seward Rotary Club, Seward Parks, Rec, the Seward Senior Center, and US Foods. All proceeds will be donated to the Seward Boys and Girls Club.
The Seward Rotary Club was happy to make another $3000 donation to the He Will Provide Food Bank to help make sure everyone has a warm meal this holiday season. We also assisted in delivering loads of food from Safeway to the Food Bank to be ready for Thanksgiving.
Seward Rotary is once again providing coats for kids in need of some extra warmth this winter. This year, with the help of Columbia Sportswear, we have added the addition of snow pants, hats, and gloves to our supply. A big shout out to Christy Jordan at Seward Elementary for providing a storage area for the winter gear and assisting with distribution. If you are aware of a child in need of some extra warmth, please contact Christy Jordan at cjordan@kpbsd.org. Thanks to Rotarian Monica Hinders for heading up this project this year.
