Rotarians and guests are invited to participate in this service event, taking place at Rochester Public Library (101 2 Street SE). Volunteers have an opportunity to not only serve the community but also to enjoy great fellowship while doing so. The tasks are varied, and there's something for everyone!
Volunteers may serve anytime between 11 am - 1 pm.
RPL administration will coordinate volunteer projects.
Volunteers may bring their lunch into the meeting room and leave personal items there while they volunteer.
TRCR will have a coordinator available to sign in volunteers.
Parking validation will be available for volunteers. Please bring your parking ramp ticket into RPL when you serve.
Mark your calendars, invite your friends and fellow Rotarians, and polish your clubs for our 2019 Rotary Golf Outing, Thursday, September 5 at Willow Creek Golf Course. Registration will go live soon, and you may register as a team of four or as an individual and we'll assign you a team. Golf will be played as "Best Shot," as this event is intended to encourage Rotary fun and fellowship. Golfers of all skill levels are encouraged to play. Rotary logo-wear is encouraged. Awards and surprises given at Willow Creek Golf Course at the end of the round. If you aren't a golfer, we hope you'll still make plans to join us for a traditional meeting with lunch and social time, business meeting, and a program (to be announced).

By now you must have August 30 circled on your Rotary Calendar, right?! If not, why not? As mentioned in the Rotary year kick-off video (https://rotary5960.org/Stories/rotary-connects-the-world), the Rotary Blitz is coming to the Minnesota State Fair! Now is the time to make plans to join with Rotarians from Districts 5960, 5950, and 5580.
We need you and yours (families encouraged) to build a blitz with hundreds of our upper Midwest Rotary Family. And what better way to throw a party than at the "Great Minnesota Get-Together!" We are not the only ones that recognize how spectacular this annual must-go event is. Newsweek recently honored it as the sole North American entry [“Americana at it’s best”], in late summer worldwide festivals.
