The North Scott Rotary Club is excited to share the progress of The Venue at Sheridan Meadows, a new community bandshell that will provide a gathering place for concerts, performances, celebrations, and community events for generations to come.

Thanks to the generosity of our community, we have raised 70% of the funds needed for The Venue, and construction is underway. Now, we are asking for your help to close the final 30% and bring this community project across the finish line.

The Venue holds special meaning for our Rotary Club as we honor the legacy of Bill Tubbs, a charter member who devoted more than 50 years to Rotary and our community. Bill and his wife, Linda, have long embodied Rotary's motto,“Service Above Self.” Their generosity helped launch The Venue with an initial $50,000 contribution, which the North Scott Rotary Club matched.

With construction underway and completion anticipated in late spring or early summer 2027, The Venue is no longer just a vision. It is becoming a reality, and we invite you to be part of completing it.

Your support will help create a lasting gathering place where families, friends, and neighbors can come together and where music, entertainment, and community traditions can thrive. Just as importantly, The Venue will stand as a lasting tribute to the spirit of service that makes projects like this possible in our community.

Giving Levels

• Visionary | $25,000+
• Benefactor | $15,000–$24,999
• Leader | $10,000–$14,999
• Champion | $5,000–$9,999
• Advocate | $2,500–$4,999
• Supporter | $1,000–$2,499

All donors at these giving levels will be prominently recognized on a permanent donor wall at The Venue, providing lasting recognition of those who helped make this community project possible.

Your gift will help:

• Complete a quality performance and gathering space for our community.
• Honor Bill Tubbs' legacy of more than 50 years of service through the North Scott Rotary Club.
• Bring people together through music, entertainment, and community celebrations.
• Continue Rotary's tradition of service and investment in our community.

We have come a long way, but we need your help to finish the job. With 70% of the funding raised and construction underway, every additional gift moves us closer to completing The Venue and opening it for our community to enjoy.

Upon completion, the North Scott Rotary Club will host a ribbon-cutting celebration at The Venue, bringing together the community and recognizing the donors and sponsors whose generosity helped make the project possible. We look forward to celebrating this milestone with everyone who helped bring The Venue to life.

We would welcome the opportunity to talk with you about the project and how you can be part of completing it. Please contact Pat Olsen, Project Chair, at 563-212-2533 or nsrthevenue@gmail.com for more information. [Letter.docx | Word]
