We sat as a group, often at the absolutely stunning Rotary Athletic Park, thinking of ways that we can create positive change in our community. It was important to us that we find a project that allowed the entire community to be engaged. We wanted a hands on project that did more than fundraise for money. We would fundraise for time, and energy and people who wanted to get their hands dirty with us. Many of the discussions lead to us looking at the Rotary Olds Creek Enhancement Project.
The Athletic Park fundraiser is completed. What an enormous accomplishment!!
