We had a nice turnout with a few new faces for Wedneday's Q2 Event, and presented a $2,500 donation to our Q1 2026 winner, Green Gables Haven! Executive Director Janie Bergeron was on hand to talk about her organization and thank everyone for your support.
🌮 🍻 We enjoyed a taco bar and drinks again, courtesy our host sponsor: Venue 1230 - thank you, Yon Bucher!
📣 Winner of the Q2 donation is: Hastings Rotary Club Skate Park. 🛹
Rotary is leading efforts to rebuild the dilapidated skate park at the First Ward Park in Hastings - re-establishing an outlet for area youth recreation. The current structure is in disrepair, and is located one block from the 135 new Hastings Riverwalk Apartment units and Mill Street Market, both under construction currently.
