Tree Update
Rotary’s 2018 Goal is to have one tree planted for every Rotarian. The following are targeted locations for our tree planting: Middle School wetland area can host 10 trees, 23 trees will then be planted on Rotary Way later this fall. Kishwauketo has requested15 trees and10 trees are slated for Peterson Island Woods. Personal “back yard” trees and those planted on business properties can be counted toward the Rotarian tree count. Most of the trees being planted are 2-3 foo seedling, bare root trees. The board will discuss the additional funds needed, approx. $7,000 total, for the cost of the project. April 20th, April 21st , (Peterson Island Woods), and April 26th (Kishwauketo) are suggested dates for planting. Students will assist at the Middle School wetlands, which will provide a great PR opportunity. Rotarians leading this project include: Jerry Peterson and Colby Venema .

Dawn will begin planning for the 50th Anniversary of the club and is putting together a committee to assist. May 2019 is the target date.
