Brookings Rotarians provided community service recently that took them outdoors as they helped maintain two Rotary-sponsored existing projects. The Rotary Garden at McCrory Gardens on the SDSU campus was planted in 2005 to celebrate the centennial of the founding of Rotary International. Each year, Rotarians continue to tend the garden with weeding and hands-on TLC. A couple of weeks later, Rotarians gathered early one morning to assist in the re-painting of the Born Learning Trails at Hillcrest Park. This project was sponsored in 2020 by Brookings Rotary with a matching grant from District 5610, partnering with the Brookings Area United Way. Born Learning Trails are located in Hillcrest and McClemans Parks, and are fun outdoor activities for young children and their families. Good work, Rotarians!
