Camp RYLA experience
Camp RYLA experience

Each year the Rotary Club of Maple Grove sponsors two students, one from each high school, to attend the camp. Students from all over Wisconsin and Minnesota participant in this event.

Luke Tomczyk, student at Maple Grove Senior High School, and Naziah Haywood, student at Osseo Senior High School, recently completed a four-day experience at Rotary Camp  RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) which was held at the YMCA Camp just south of Hudson Wisconsin.

Camp RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) is a fun, intensive leadership experience that develops leadership, teambuilding, and problem-solving skills. This unique experience promotes individual growth and leadership capabilities of high school juniors and sophomores through physical, mental, emotional and intellectual challenges. Campers interact with other members of their team and volunteer counselors as they work through these challenges together.

The final event at the camp is when the campers participate in a meeting of the Rotary Club of St Paul 10, the main organizing club, and recount their experiences during the camp. The students always say this is the highlight of the year.

Pollinator Garden and Bee Houses
Pollinator Garden and Bee Houses

The Rotary club of Maple Grove in collaboration with the City of Maple Grove, planted a large pollinator garden at Central Park this past June. Located near the pickleball courts, the garden was designed with the guidance of Heidi's Growhaus Nursery and features more than 100 planted in the northeast corner of the fields. This project supports the city's Monarch Pledge goals and provides important habitant for the pollinators such as bees, butterflies and other bendficial insects. 

While the plants take time to mature they will become an attractive feature for the park visitors as they grow.  And once the garden reaches its full display the longterm benefits will be significant. The colorful flowers and native plants will not only enhance the beauty of Cental Park but also help sustain pollinator populations  that play a crucial role in the ecosystem.

ESRAG Sponsors the Maple Grove Art Center Green Show
ESRAG Sponsors the Maple Grove Art Center Green Show

The Rotary Club of Maple Grove - ESRAG (Environmental Sustainability Rotary Action Group) sponsored the Green Show at the Maple Grove Art Center on March 26.  Sponsorship gave our club the opportunity to speak about our activities. Bonita Marten spoke about the work ESRAG does - planting trees, pulling buckthorn, planting pollinator gardens, and recycling, We collected 1000# of plastic last year to keep it out of the landfill and earned a bench. 

Many of the art pieces resonated with ESRAG interests – trees, gardens, plastics and recycling, and even the circular economy.  Several art pieces used recycled plastic, single use containers, tinfoil, and even seed packets.
