Eleven of the 12 volunteer spots remain unfilled for this Saturday's, November 28, Salvation Army bell ringing. Please consider signing-up to ring bells! Bell ringing is a tradition of The Rotary Club of Rochester, and we are committed to ringing bells each Saturday, November 14 - December 19 at HyVee 37th Street. Shifts are 8:30 am - 8:30 pm. Please check your schedule and register here to serve. Rotarians are always encouraged to enjoy community service with family members, but this year we ask you to especially consider it with COVID-19 guidelines in place.
