Urgent!!!!!
The 2024 Westerner Days Parade is July 17. Volunteers are required to help assemble the float and be in the parade itself, cheering on Rotary!
Club support is required in order to ensure that the 2024 Community BBQ occurs this year. It is held immediately after the parade. It was a highly successful event last year, serving over 1000 citizens. The BBQ is a great way for Rotary to give back to the community and creates a wonderful platform to demonstrate what Rotary is about. The Social Committee is having difficulty with sponsors for the Community BBQ, volunteers, and logistics. Please respond immediately to Annette Eby and.or members of the Social committee (Leigh, Aliesha, and Judith) if you can assist! Without your support we may need to cancel this event.
