Social and Volunteer Opportunities 

  • Public Relations Committee chair Tawny Hammond needs fellow Rotarians who are interested in joining her to help share our story with the Community and beyond. If you have writing skills, a zealous passion for Rotary, or even media contacts, please consider this committee and email her at thammond23@yahoo.com.

  • Our club has been involved with Safe Passage for many years--this short video provides a great overview of this live-changing program!

    • The World Community Service Committee is working with Safe Passage leadership to create a one-week service learning opportunity for our club members, probably in the fall. If you are interested in learning more, please contact Lorrain Beers lorrainembeers@gmail.com, Tome Petzold petzoldtm@goacentek.net, or Linda Racine linbracine@gmail.com.
  • Mark your Calendars for our partnership with Goodwill's Food Rescue from 9 am-12 pm on the last Thursday of every month. Our club has a long history of service with this great organization.  (Not to mention a few of our club members helped found it!)
    • Volunteer duties will mostly include repackaging bulk frozen food into family-sized meals for redistribution around Northern Michigan.
    • This is an appropriate volunteer activity for club members of all physical ability levels. Family and friends (even prospective club members...) over the age of 18 are also welcome.
    • The next club volunteer shift will be Thursday, February 23rd from 9 am to 12 pm. We are hoping to have at least 6 volunteers.
    • Please use this link to sign up, or let nick@commonplacework.org know if you are interested.
