Last Sunday was the RockPAL Cornhole Tournament. We once again provided the fencing for this annual RockPAL event. That means we get the glamorous job of putting it up—and then taking it down! It was a great way to support RockPAL, help make the event run smoothly, and get a little Rotary muscle-building workout in the process.

Volunteer Details

What Will We Be Doing?
Our volunteers will help get the event ready by:
