Our Satellite club has changed its monthly meeting time at the Table of Grace. We now meet the 2nd Wednesday of every month at the Table of Grace (Doris Lane location), 3845 Doris Lane in Round Rock at 6:30 pm.
Members of the Rotary Club of Round Rock Sunrise joined forces with the Round Rock Police Department to help make their Step-N2-Success program even more rewarding for these deserving kids. This program provides new shoes to children from low-income families ahead of their returning to school. For each of the 883 families the event was serving, our Club provided Plush Toys to make this event more fun. In fact, one group with three boys who each opted for the green dinosaur plush, which you may be able to see in the picture, decided that the dinosaurs should fight, and it was so cute watching them trying to be protective of their new toy while immersing themselves in their role-playing adventure.
As part of the Service Coalition of Round Rock (SCORR) members of the Rotary Club of Round Rock Sunrise participated in the parade in downtown Round Rock on July 4th, 2024. The purpose of our participation was to promote how working collaboratively with other service organizations in the local area, we can achieve great things. During the parade, we gave out plush toys to kids along the route, which were a huge success. Here's looking forward to 2025.
On February 17th, we partnered with the Rotary Club of Austin to participate in meal packaging for Rise Against Hunger! Thanks to those who showed up and volunteered! In addition to all the thousands of food bags assembled, the event also raised over $9,000 which will be used to help combat hunger worldwide.
Thanks to all who helped with the parking fundraiser over all 6 UT home games in 2023! This was a great source of income for our club. Thanks also to the Rotary Club of Austin University Area for letting us partner with them on this project!
Our club has installed a little library at the Table of Grace meeting location for our club! Thanks to the Drumgooles for assembling, painting, and storing the library and to Don Duncan for installing it! Tasks remaining include painting the post and platform, installing the dedication plaque, and stocking it with books. We look forward to its use by Table of Grace members!
