Again this year, we are selling sweet, delicious California ORANGES and your commitment to buy and/or sell to neighbors, friends, co-workers, will make us successful.
Here are 3 excellent reasons ORANGES are vital to St. George Rotary Club … and more importantly, why we want to make this fundraiser another success in 2022:
We’re supporting Scout Troop #42B and Scout Troop #42G in Little Valley to help these young men and women earn money for summer events.
Funds raised will also help SGR do “more good” in the community, the district and the world!!!
A list of those you’ve sold to in the past is available by email. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE sell ORANGES in support of our Guatemala stoves project, our dictionary project, other club service activities … and about 40 scouts!
Cost is again $45 for a full case and $25 for a half case. The last day to order is May 6 with ORANGES delivered at the end of the month.
Thanks to Toby O'Brien for suggesting members of SGR contribute Horseplay $$$ for the purchase of books for the St. George Children's Museum, particularly the Lending Library as one of our club's literacy projects.
As members already know, we collect and donate new or gently loved children's books (ages newborn to 7th grade) and have, to date, delivered many dozens to the SGCM. If you'd like to donate those books your own children have enjoyed - but have now outgrown - SGCM would love to have them.
Bring them to our next meeting ... or deliver them in SGR's name to Lori at 86 S. Main Street.
The St. George Children's Museum is still looking for a handyman (or handygal) or two willing to regularly volunteer a few hours a week to keep displays and other parts of this "happiest place in Washington County" in good repair.
SGCM is also looking for a retired teacher (or two) interested in volunteering two evenings a week for the museum's "Girls Do STEAM" (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) class.
For more information on any of these volunteer positions, call Lori at (435) 986-4000.
The Ironman World Championship will be held in St. George on Tuesday, May 3 (Parade of Athletes) through Sunday, May 8 (Race Day is Saturday, May 7) - the first time this event has been held outside of Hawaii in its 44-year history - and there are still hundreds of volunteers needed.
Many shifts are still open.
