In an effort to provide support for overworked first responders, The Bloomingdale-Roselle Rotary provided a hot meal to the Police and Fire Departments that serve Bloomingdale and Roselle. We worked with local restaurants including; Anyway’s Pub, and Outback Steakhouse in Bloomingdale and Doctor Dogs in Roselle to provide a well-deserved free meal to these heroes’. The Bloomingdale-Roselle Rotary Club is exploring multiple other projects to support local partners that are helping in the Coronavirus response.
Over 1,000 children, parents, and community members participated in the second annual Trunk or Treat Event, hosted by the Bloomingdale-Roselle Rotary Club together with the American Legion Post 1084 in Roselle.
