Sunrise Spring Plant Sale
From Susan Schneck: The most important thing to know is that plants are delivered to my home and must be picked up that day - which is Thursday, May 19 this year. We get the plants first thing in the morning and organize the orders by Rotarian to facilitate that process. We will schedule pickups between noon and 6 pm. After you send in the order forms with payment, we will return the order forms with the plants the day of delivery so each order is accounted for. Let me know if you have any questions.
The plants will come from Gregor Farms, a small family and local business that only uses natural products. All orders with payment need to be to me by March 25th. I prefer checks but venmo is an option - especially if you want to email your order forms. BUT make sure to friend me or let me know before you send me venmo funds. Hard to imagine, But there is more than one Susan Schneck so it's important to connect before to get it right. Make sure that the table on the last page of the order form is filled out and the numbers add up. Gift Cards are available and a nice option to buy from the nursery if you want something for Mother's Day. Keep in mind, we only get 16% of gift card proceeds and about 40-50% on plants. Plants will be delivered to my garage on THURSDAY May 19th. Plants MUST be picked up THAT DAY between noon and 6 pm.
Thanks! Susan susanschneck@gmail.com
It all started at a St Louis Park Rotary meeting. Keep the legacy going by participating in the annual Children First Champions Breakfast.
St. Louis Park Rotary, since 1947, has developed a reputation as one of the friendliest Rotary clubs in the state.
“Mondays Matter,” as past president, Pastor David Landt once stated. Our Monday noontime meetings at the beautiful Westwood Hills Nature Center, located in the northwest corner of St. Louis Park, include a full lunch and a lineup of quality speakers. If you want to learn about things you would never be exposed to, come to our club, meet great professional and civic leaders, and listen to our excellent speakers.
Rotary is a wonderful organization that believes in making the world a better place to live, both locally and worldwide. St. Louis Park Rotary founded the nationally-acclaimed initiative called "Children First." This movement was birthed in our club and we aggressively support it some two decades later. We mentor St. Louis Park high school students and also support STEP (St. Louis Park Emergency Program) to make sure there is food for those in need.
In addition to our humanitarian commitments, we enjoy and benefit from fellowship with people from all walks of life. If you are interested in weekly lunch meetings, featuring great food, great fellowship, great speakers and helping to make our world in St. Louis Park and beyond, a better place, come and check us out.
Bring a lunch or order one ahead of time by contacting us. Arrive as early as 11:45 a.m. most every Monday. The official meeting runs 12:00-1:00pm. We would love to meet you.
