Golf scramble sets records
The Rogers Rotary~Christain Builders & Remodelers Golf Scramble broke records …..with 98 golfers and the support of a title sponsor, four corporate sponsors, and a variety of specialty sponsors. THANK YOU to each golfer and business owner who made this our most successful scramble ever!

Paul Harris Fellowships awarded to Cheryl, Marc
Rotary giving has two components: sweat equity in local service projects, and financial support of The Rotary Foundation (TRF) which leverages gifts and matching funds to create a huge impact worldwide. Wednesday’s meeting celebrated Cheryl Helwig (Counselor Realty) and Marc Macke (Agency 10 Insurance) for TRF donations reaching the next $1,000 level. Congratulations and thank you both!
