Service above Self - Humanitarian service to advance peace and goodwill.

The Bloomsburg Rotary Club is a vibrant community of service-minded individuals committed to making a difference—locally and globally. We support scholarships for Bloomsburg High and Vo-Tech students, host leadership programs like RYLA and the 4-Way Speech Contest, and provide quarterly Friendship Meals for families in need. Our members roll up their sleeves for highway cleanups, maintain the Rotary pavilion and rose garden, and partner with nonprofits like AGAPE, Panther Packs, and Miracles on Horseback. Internationally, we support ShelterBox, Polio Plus, and water projects in Cambodia, Cuba, and India. We also bring joy to our community through events like TreeFest, National Night Out, and Trunk or Treat. Whether it’s service, fellowship, or fun—Bloomsburg Rotary is where it all comes together.

💙💛 MEET A ROTARIAN: Russel E. Bachert, Jr. 💛💙

📚 A lifelong educator, community volunteer, and polka enthusiast!

Meet Russel, a proud member of the Rotary Club of Bloomsburg since 2020!

Russel has dedicated his life to education, teaching students from kindergarten through graduate school across three countries and six states! Today, he continues sharing his knowledge as a substitute teacher for 5th and 6th graders at a local public school.

🤝 Why Rotary?
For Russel, it’s all about service — helping others right here in our community and making a difference around the world.

🏡 What does he love about Bloomsburg?
Discovering the area’s rich history and meeting the wonderful people who dedicate their time to helping others.

🎶 Here’s something you probably didn’t know!
Russel is the ONLY member in the United States of both the British Organ Grinders Association and the Australian Mechanical Organ Society! How cool is that? 🎵

💃 His favorite local events?
Polka dances! You’ll find Russel enjoying the music and traditions at dances throughout our area.

We’re grateful to have Russel as part of our Rotary family, bringing his passion for education, history, music, and service to our community! 💙

🍯🐻 A Sweet Celebration for an Important Cause! 💜

What a wonderful way to celebrate Winnie the Pooh’s 100th Birthday while raising awareness and funds for a cause close to Rotary’s heart — ending polio worldwide! 🌍

Our Bloomsburg Rotary family enjoyed not one, but two fun-filled gatherings on Thursday evening and Friday morning! Both were filled with laughter, friendship, sweet treats, and meaningful conversations about why our mission to eradicate polio matters. 💜

Thursday evening was extra special as we welcomed one of last year’s Students of the Month and four members of the Bloomsburg Interact Club! With 12 participants joining the fun, it was a wonderful reminder of how Rotary brings generations together through friendship and service. 🤝

And the fun didn’t stop there! Friday morning brought even more smiles, laughter, and fellowship as we continued our Winnie the Pooh celebration! 🐻🍯

A huge THANK YOU to Little Bakery for the delicious honey cake! 🍰 It was the perfect sweet touch to our celebration!

As Winnie the Pooh reminds us:

💛 “Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.”

Sometimes it’s the little moments — sharing cake, laughing together, and connecting with our community — that remind us why we do what we do.

Together, we’re making a difference, one sweet moment at a time! 💜🌍

🌟 MEET A ROTARIAN: Mike Tombasco

Meet Mike, a Bloomsburg native whose connection to Rotary actually started long before he became a Rotarian!

💻 Professionally, Mike has spent most of his career in healthcare technology and currently works as an Account Executive for Zus Health.

💙 His Rotary story started early.
While attending Bloomsburg High School, Mike was a member of Interact Club, where he met local Rotarians and participated in Rotary events. Years later, that experience helped bring him back to Rotary — this time as a member.

Mike joined Bloomsburg Rotary in April 2021 because he saw it as an opportunity to give back to his community in different ways while learning from people already leading those efforts.

🏡 What does Mike love about Bloomsburg?
The variety! From activities and organizations to local venues, there’s something for people of all ages and interests — something Mike believes plays an important role in helping our community thrive.

🔎 Something you probably don’t know about Mike:
During college, he worked as an enumerator for the U.S. Census Bureau during the 2010 Census! He spent his days walking around State College, mostly visiting larger student apartment buildings and administering Census surveys.

From Interact student to Rotarian, Mike’s story is a great reminder that introducing young people to service can have an impact that lasts for years.

Thank you, Mike, for being part of Bloomsburg Rotary! 💙💛

🍷 A Little W**e, A Lot of Learning, and Great Company!

Last night was a wonderful reminder of what makes Rotary so special! 💙💛

One of the greatest things about Rotary is bringing together people from different backgrounds, professions, and interests — and creating opportunities to learn from one another in a fun, welcoming, and supportive environment.

A huge thank you to Lynda Michaels for leading us through a fantastic evening of w**e tasting and pairings! 🍇🍷

We explored different flavors, aromas, and pairings, shared some laughs, and we’re pretty sure everyone walked away knowing at least ONE new thing about w**e! 😉

That’s the beauty of Rotary. We come together to serve our community, but along the way, we build friendships, share knowledge, discover new interests, and have a great time doing it.

Different backgrounds. Shared experiences. Stronger connections. ❤️

Thank you, Lynda, for such a fun and educational evening!

💙💛 $15,000 BACK INTO OUR COMMUNITY!

The Rotary Club of Bloomsburg is proud to support two organizations doing important work right here in our community.

⛳ $14,000 to Agape Agape Bloomsburg
These funds were raised through our annual Rotary Golf Tournament — a huge thank you to every golfer, sponsor, volunteer, and supporter who helped make this possible!

💙 $1,000 to the Teen Center Bloom YAB
This contribution was made through funds allocated by our Rotary President and President-Elect to support needs in our local community.

Together, that’s $15,000 supporting organizations that make a difference for our neighbors.

This is what Rotary is all about: bringing people together, serving our community, and turning generosity into action.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support the Rotary Club of Bloomsburg and makes moments like these possible. 💛

🎡 ROTARY AT THE BLOOMSBURG FAIR! 💙💛

Another Bloomsburg Fair is in the books, and we’re incredibly grateful for everyone who volunteered their time to help with parking at the fair!

Thanks to the hard work of our Rotarians and volunteers, we raised over $1,800 to support the work our club does throughout the community. 🙌

Whether you worked a shift, helped organize, or simply showed up ready to lend a hand — THANK YOU! We truly couldn’t have done it alone.

This is what Rotary is all about: people coming together, giving their time, and turning a few hours of service into something that can make a difference in our community. 💙

And a big thank you to everyone who parked with us and supported Bloomsburg Rotary along the way!

Service Above Self. 💛💙
