Rotary Club Hosts Lunch for 300 Kids
Posted by Bill Beaupre on Jun 13, 2019
The Elk Grove Rotary has a tradition of almost thirty years of hosting a lunch for local children signed up with NWSRA and NEDSRA.  These are two special recreation organizations that give children with challenges an opportunity to get out and enjoy many different experiences.  On June 12, three hundred kids and counselors visited the Rotary Fest Grounds for a lunch donated by Tasty Catering and Dilly Bars donated by Dairy Queen of Elk Grove.  We also invited the organization Costumers with a Cause to entertain the kids.  The Kids then went on the rides for a couple of hours.  The kids look forward to this event every year and had a blast.
