Community Service Project – Sept. 26th 2015
 
Our club gave back to the Plant City community by participating in Care Fest on Saturday September 26th.  CareFest® was an outgrowth of the Supper Bowl XXXV as a sanctioned event.  This compassion festival, done the week prior to the Super Bowl had over 1,400 volunteers serve approximately 12,000 attendees.  The object of this week was to do all the good we can by all the means we can.  This event has been continued annually as a way for groups and individuals to give back to there local communities back helping needy individuals with basic maintenance and repairs. 
 
This year our club participated by pressure washing and painting the home of a local resident.
 
            
 
            
 
                                            
 
While we are always happy that our club is able to support many Plant City events and charities through donations from out fundraisers, it is also great to be able to invest a little sweat equity for our community.  The Rotarians who were able to participate Saturday morning were certainly living up to the Rotary motto of “Service above Self.”
