ANNOUNCEMENTS & OPPORTUNITIES
 
THIS WEEK: Crutches4Africa
Crutches4Africa is a District 5960 sponsored project organized by Stillwater Sunrise Rotary; Hudson Daybreak Rotary is a partner. This year, mobility devices are being collected for use in Mexico, as sending to Africa is not possible at this time. There are several opportunities to support this initiative:
  • Wednesday, May 27 (time TBA): Trucks and trailers are needed to pick up mobility devices in Glenwood City, Baldwin, Osceola, and Hudson and deliver them to John Duntley’s pole barn for storage.
  • Saturday, June 6, starting at 9 am: Trucks and trailers are needed to transfer the mobility devices from John Duntley’s pole barn to Stillwater. 
We also need helpers to help load and unload the trucks and trailers on both dates. If you have a truck/trailer or can help load/unload devices on either date, please contact Linda Robertson: lindainhudson@icloud.com or text 651-341-1095.
Argentina Rotary Friendship Exchange
This summer, our Club is hosting a Rotary team from Argentina. We have a responsibility to cover lodging and transportation from June 7th - 10th. There are 10 in the exchange, ranging in age from 30 to 80. 2 sets are couples, and 6 are single (They can share a room as long as there are separate beds). Please check your calendars for your availability and let Rob Howard know! This is an opportunity to grow your international experience in Rotary.

Volunteer Opportunity - CNC Pollinator Gardens

It's year #2 of our partnership with the Carpenter Nature Center, helping maintain their wonderful pollinator gardens.

On June 4 at 6 pm, we need a group to mulch, weed, install a fence, and re-establish some of the planting beds. 

After that, we need to water the gardens three times each week. Watering can be done by one Rotarian each time. 

June 11 - Grace Place Meal Delivery
We have an opportunity in the upcoming months to deliver meals to New Richmond Grace Place. Rotarians will pick up the meal at Camp St. Croix Cafeteria at 4:30 pm and deliver to Grace Place by 5:00.
Thank you!
Last week was busy with both a food packing volunteer opportunity and our annual Taste of the Valley event. Thank you to everyone who volunteered at either (or both!) of these opportunities.
