Rotarians plant trees on Make a Difference Day

The tree planting crew from the Rotary Club of Goodyear PebbleCreek makes a difference in the community with their commitment to service above self.

The Rotary Club of Goodyear PebbleCreek dispatched ten Rotarians and helpers with shovels and rakes to plant 14 trees in Goodyear Community Park on Make a Difference Day October 27.

In the spirit of “service above self,” the local Rotarians joined other churches and community groups to enhance the park’s landscape.

“Rolling up our sleeves and going to work for the community is the essence of Rotary volunteer service,” said Joan Smith, club president. “We actively engage the community on a variety of fronts where needs are identified and our time and commitment can make a difference.”

The Rotary Club of Goodyear PebbleCreek supports Avenues of Service focused on community, youth, international and vocational needs through scholarships and grants and the effort and energy of the club’s 30 members.

Chartered in November 2017, the Rotary Club of Goodyear PebbleCreek meets every Wednesday at 7:00 a.m. in the Chianti Room of the PebbleCreek Tuscany Falls clubhouse. For further information contact Joan Smith, club president, at 503-348-9468 or [email protected].
