Ideas needed for National Day of Service
During the week of the September 11th National Day of Service, Rotary clubs around the district – including SGR – are asked to partner with JustServe.org for a “service above self” project of any kind and with any other non-profit or government organization.
So, club members, do you have a connection to or interest in a non-profit in need of our help? Is there something in your neighborhood – like the firepit at Vernon Worthen Park - in need of a little TLC from SGR?
Please reach out to Service Chair Reed Noble with any idea you might have as we remember the 2002 attack on America.

The total cases of wild polio since NYD 2023 - anywhere in the world - is still holding steady at 6(1 in Afghanistan and 5 in Pakistan) but don't be fooled into believing this terrible disease has been eradicated because it is still very much a threat to the children of the world.
PLEASE help us achieve RI's goal of ZEROby joining the Polio Plus Society at just $8.50 per month until polio is - finally and forever - eradicated from the earth, 'cause this fight isn't over til its over!
