Donation intake
Stocking the sales floor
Assisting customers
If you are available to volunteer, lease have sign up by using the link below. This will also serve as the volunteer waiver.
We will have a pinning ceremony at our September 2 meeting.
Mike Reyhons and Wendy Bowman will be presenting a New Member Orientation will take place following the September 2 meeting. If you have joined the club in the last year, please join us for the orientation.
Do you need a Rotary polo or t-shirt?
Members are able to order a Nike polo, or t-shirt to wear at service projects and around town. Each polo is $38 and t-shirts are $10. You can email Mike Reyhons at the link below with your order. We will coordinate invoicing once you place your order.
Beginning in September, we will be offering sponsorship opportunities for our newsletter. Each month we will feature a sponsor on our weekly newsletter. With a $100 Sponsorship, the businesses logo and information will be listed as the newsletter sponsor for the entire month. The business will also be featured in 2 social media posts and have the opportunity to visit our club to say a few words about their company or upcoming projects.

What You Missed Last Week:
UNI President Mark Nook joined us to update us on how UNI has adapted to the needs of pandemic life through online learning options, on campus instruction with numerous precautions (masking, reduction of class sizes and creative use of space) , and ongoing communication with the CDC and IPDH. He also talked about how UNI is taking steps to overhaul its on campus policing procedures and working to improve the educational experience, and remove barriers to success for minority students . He believes that UNI is a "city" unto itself and that community engagement and action will help UNI and the community move forward together.
Rotary is not just a club you join. It is an invitation to endless opportunities. It opens opportunities to serve in a project as big and historic as End Polio Now and also in a small community project, where you just plant a tree. It opens opportunities for you to live a richer, more meaningful life, with friends around the world, based on our core values. Everything we do opens another opportunity for someone, somewhere.
The 2020-2021 theme is: Rotary Opens Opportunities.
