The Recreation Arts and Parks tax is a countywide tax that was put on the ballot in 2014 and is coming up for renewal on the ballot in November. The RAP tax applies to park and recreation-related projects, as well as arts programs and nonprofit groups. It is set up as a sales tax of one-tenth of 1% of non-food purchases – one penny for every $10. Monies generated from the tax go to the county and participating municipalities based on population and point-of-sale.

Bring a neighbor, friend or co-worker for this presentation before the election!

It's election time again - no surprise there - so this is our opportunity to "say Rotary" to those in our community while they enjoy a cookie and the opportunity to meet and greet and ask questions of those running for local offices.

Please tell your neighbors, friends and co-workers.

See you at the Best Western Abbey Inn.

Last year was so much fun bowling together, but we didn't raise any money and we didn't have any teams competing from other clubs so we're doing it again!

We will be playing in the "B" Lounge at Fiesta Fun.  There will be teams from other clubs.  Fundraising will be accomplished through pledges from friends, neighbors, co-worker and other club members at a rate of 50 cents per pin with the promise proceeds raised will be sent to PolioPlus.

David and Carla will bring their food truck and there will be lots of fun, friends and probably a few gutter balls!

Wanna be on the team?  We will save you a place!

 

 

 

What if you couldn't read?  How would you fill out a job application?  Apply for a driver license?  Understand your doctor's directions for your health care?  Help your children with their homework? 

In the 2022–2023 school year, 56% of first graders, 67% of second graders, and 66% of third graders met reading benchmarks at the beginning of the year. By the end of the year, 62% of first graders and 71% of third graders met the benchmarks, while second graders remained at 67%. However, according to the Utah State Board of Education, less than half of students in grades 1–3 were reading at their expected grade level.

On Monday, October 28, our speaker will be Kathy Hall, Elementary Literacy Coordinator Specialist for the Washington County School District.

Bring a neighbor, friend, co-worker or another interested individual for this important program.
