Rotary Youth Exchange Host Families Needed!

Please help us get the word out! The Rotary Club of Fort Morgan has been asked to host a female exchange student from Sweden for this coming 2023/24 school year! We are excited about this opportunity even though it doesn't give us much time to prepare. We are in urgent need of identifying 3 host families that are within the Fort Morgan school district (but you don't need to have students attending a Fort Morgan school) to share their home with Emelie for 3-4 months and enjoy this rewarding experience together.

Who can be a host family? Anyone, with or without children at home, that wants to help Rotary exchange students unlock their true potential to:
- Develop lifelong leadership skills
- Learn a new language and culture
- Build lasting friendships with young people from around the world
- Become a global citizen

Would you like to be a host family or do you know a family that would enjoy this rewarding experience? If you do, please send us an email at fortmorganrotary@gmail.com to learn more about this great experience!

FM Rotary Fall Hibiscus Plant Sale

Black thumbs are no excuse! If you're going to kill your plants - you might as well kill 'em for a good cause!

The Fort Morgan Rotary Club is selling beautiful perennial hibiscus plants to support our community projects. Perennial hibiscus are hardy in zones 4-9. Their large stature and dinner plate sized blossoms make them the talk of your neighborhood from midsummer to early fall as they flaunt their tropical looking blossoms.

The perennial hibiscus plants we are selling are available in White (could be blush white), Deep Pink, and Red. Single one gallon size $15. Buy 2 or more and only pay $12.50 each. Order one of each color! Click here to order.

Delivery date will be determined based on growers notification to our club that the plants are ready. This will be determined by the first week of August with delivery likely soon after 8/10/23. Plants will be delivered to a central pick up location. Details will be sent via email and will be posted on this website and on the Fort Morgan Rotary facebook page.

17 Down - 83 To Go

The Fort Morgan Rotary Club's 100 Trees Project, led by club member Loren Boyett, had its first tree planting ceremony this morning. Attended by members of the City staff, public, and Fort Morgan Rotary Club, we officially turned the spade on the first 17 trees that have been planted so far. With the planting of 14 trees at Optimist Park, 1 at Cox Park, and 2 at the Riverside Park city shops, we are well on the way to our 100 tree goal for planted trees in the city of Fort Morgan. The Rotary Club of Fort Morgan is working with other like-minded individuals and organizations in our community to beautify the city and work towards cleaner air through the planting of 100 trees. Rotary, an international service organization, is committed to supporting activities that strengthen the conservation and protection of natural resources, advance ecological sustainability, and foster harmony between communities and the environment. If you are interested in helping to support this project, you can donate by clicking here.
