This past summer Theresa and Hunt accompanied others from District 5710 to Guatamala to impact health and wellness for families in the remote region of Panajachel. This week we will hear highlights and stories of impact from their trip.
Bratzels, Bierricks, Wurst and other appetizers provided. Members are responsible for their beverage and any special food orders. We will be in the outdoor Biergarten unless weather moves us to the Bierhalle. KC Bier has supported our club with annual donations to the Crawfish Festival and other events. Please join your Rotary friends and support KC Bier in this new location they just opened in July.
Rotary Club volunteers are needed for pouring beer to raise money for our Crawfish Festival Beneficiaries.
Each person earns $15/hour(tax free due to donation). This amount will be donated directly to our charity. You can have friends and family work too.
Everyone gets a free T-shirt and a free ticket to give to a friend or use another day. The ticket will be sent via email in September.
You can sign up for more than one shift, as well as on both days.
Please sign up as soon as you can, so we can insure we fill all the shifts available. Saturday nights are the busiest and hardest to fill-please consider filling those shifts first!
Once you sign up, you will get a confirmation email. If you do not see it, please look for it in the junk folder and mark it safe. You will receive more information/instructions as the event approaches, and it will come through the Volunteer Local website.

Save the Date for Thursday, October 1st
For the past seven years, I’ve had the privilege of serving on the Board of Growing Futures Early Education Center, and this year I’m honored to serve as Board President. Growing Futures supports children and families right here in Johnson County through high quality early childhood education and comprehensive family services.
One of my favorite examples of how community connections grow is fellow Rotarian Tom Cohen. I originally met Tom through Growing Futures and later encouraged him to consider joining the Overland Park Rotary Club. He did, and since then, he has become even more involved with Growing Futures! Tom and his wife, Lena Price, are now serving as two of our first Honorary Chairs for Harvesting Hope, committing their time and energy to raising money and awareness for the important work Growing Futures is doing in our local community.
I’d love to have my fellow Rotarians join us for Harvesting Hope on Thursday, October 1, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Strang Hall in Downtown Overland Park. It’s a great opportunity to enjoy an evening together while supporting local children and families.

Please buy a couple of squares in the Polio Plus "game day pool" for the game to be played between Kansas and Kansas State Universities on October 17, 2026.

The balance in the pool will go to POLIO PLUS.
