Come Help Us on a Habitat Build in September!

August 24th, 2010

habitatlogoCome join us as our Club volunteers with Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County!

We will be volunteering from 7:00 a.m.-12:00p.m. on Saturday, September 11th.

  • Closer to the date we will know our site location and can coordinate some carpooling (which is strongly recommended by Habitat).
  • Habitat will provide water on site.
  • We need to wear shoes that will protect our feet (shoes with closed toes and closed heels).
  • Habitat will provide the tools we need, but if you wish to bring your tools from home, they recommend that you mark them with your name. They also highlight that it is especially helpful for us to bring our own work gloves, a pencil, hammer, and tool belt or nail apron if you have it.

This service opportunity is open to everyone – whether you are a Club member or would just like to get to know our Club a bit better!

Please email our Service Projects Chair, Meredith, at serviceprojects@stpetesunsetrotary.org to reserve your spot!

We hope you can join us in assisting Habitat for Humanity build a home!

A Busy Weekend for the Sunset Club!

August 17th, 2010

bakesaleThe Sunset Club has some great stuff planned for the coming weekend and we hope that everyone will be able to join us!

The club is putting on a Bake Sale & Ice Cream Social at St Pete Shuffle to benefit the ventilator project!

We would love for family, friends and anyone interested in getting to know our club to join us on Friday, August 20th at the St. Petersburg Shuffleboard Club play some shuffleboard, have a sweet treat for a great cause, and listen to the music of Rebekah Pulley. The festivities will begin at 7pm and you are welcome to drop by for a few minutes or stay all night. The Shuffle Club is located at 559 Mirror Lake Dr N in downtown St. Pete.

salarmy-logo Our club will also be going to The Salvation Army Cafe to hang out and chat, maybe play some games or listen to music, and just be there for some of St. Pete’s homeless, who may need someone to listen, talk or laugh with them. Please join us for an afternoon at Sally’s Cafe on Sunday, August 22nd from 1230pm – 3pm.

For more information on either of these opportunities to contribute to a good cause, please contact us at info@stpetesunsetrotary.org.

Come out and join us!
