Meeting this Wednesday, March 5
Meeting this Wednesday, February 26, will be at the Kutztown Tavern Club Room where we will celebrate Student of the Month.
Each month the Kutztown Rotary Club recognizes one outstanding student each from Kutztown Area High School and Brandywine Heights Area High School. These students are selected by their school administrators and are often picked for significant improvement or overcoming challenges, accomplishments in academics, school participation, and community contributions. These students never fail to impress Rotarians with their positive impact on our community. Dinner for the student, two parents, and one school administrator will be paid for by the club - additional family and representatives from the school are always welcome.
Next Service opportunity: Kutztown Kitchen on March 23, 2025.
We will be preparing Irish Stew again and will manage the meal as we did last year by shopping for the ingredients and then cooking the meal at the church.
Artist Studio Social Activity Wednesday, March 26, 6:00 pm
We will be visiting Karen Palcho is an artist and teacher in Oley offering a variety of classes including fermenting, foraging and making your own botanicals. People attending should bring a beverage (wine, beer or nonalcoholic) and snack to share. Please follow this link to sign up.
