Gallery of the Woods
Hope to see you all on Saturday, Oct. 11 at this cool art fundraiser for Plumas Arts and the FRC Foundation at the Berkeley Forestry Camp in Meadow Valley.
Witness "Ephemeral" (Lisa's word, not mine) installations tucked into the autumn leaves - photography, painting, music, dance - as you hike in the woods.
After your hike, gather for a BBQ feast of chicken chimichurri, grilled veggies, beans, fries, fresh sourdough, dessert, and a complimentary drink. Local wines, beer, and appetizers available at the no-host bar.
Buy tickets online ASAP:

Plumas Arts Director Chris and Rotarian and FRC Foundation rep Lisa promoted their collaboration on Monday.
Christmas Fundraising Collab with Rotary & the Scouts
Alex Pangburn, the leader of Quincy Scout Troop 151, joined Quincy Rotary on Monday, to introduce an upcoming fundraising partnership between the Scouts and Rotary. We are selling decorated Christmas Trees! The devil is in the details - which takes a lot of detailing - but the fundraising idea is festive and fun, and community spirited.
Christmas tree sales support the Scouts for summer camp and other troop activities. These activities help Scouts gain a positive sense of self-worth and help them gain valuable skills.
Investing in youth is one of FIVE Avenues of Rotary International Service and its Mission Objectives. Rotary's ideal of service is based on the Five Avenues of Service – Club, Vocational, Community, International and New Generations – that comprise Rotary International's philosophical cornerstone. So let's sell decorated Christmas trees to help the Scouts and make a little money for Rotary too. Christmas memories are bound by the smell of pine! More concrete details to follow.
Reminder: No Rotary Monday 10/13/25
We will see you all for the group photo - PROMISE - on the meeting Monday, 10/20/25. Don't forget to wear your Rotary swag!
