We embraced a new year by making soup to help “Squash Hunger!” Our second year as a sponsor and hands-on volunteer team, our members rolled up their sleeves and donned gloves and hairnets to wash, chop, cook and stir (good) things up in support of the York Food Alliance and its efforts to address access to food in our local communities.
Although we are serious about our service, we also enjoy our fellowship! Friends and family members joined us for a brisk and spirited walk on Market Street during the annual York St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Along the route, we shared greetings with friends and strangers alike, as well as other Club members who volunteered their time in support of this community event.

On Saturday, June 11, 2016 the Liberty Garden at Kiwanis Lake was transformed by 13 enthusiastic Uptown York Rotarians. The great turn-out for this service project resulted in the planting of flowers and shrubs, weeding, and general cleaning-up of this garden that the Uptown Club "adopted" in 2015.
Armed with "diggy-things" and assorted gardening tools (who knew "weeding sticks" were a thing?!?), the team made quick work of the transformation, leaving behind a more beautiful garden for the community to enjoy.
The Club provides ongoing garden stewardship for the Liberty Garden as well as the Gear Garden at Foundry Park. Volunteers are always welcome to join us for our monthly "tending" meet-ups during the growing season!
February 11, 2016, Uptown Rotarian Jim Singleton proudly accepted the designation of Paul Harris Fellow. Rotary Club of York Rotarian Scott C.
