CLUB NEWS

Interact from Karla Olson

It has been a very busy start of the school year for both of our Interact clubs. We have already had four Peaceful Schools visits to Summitview grades 1,2 & 3 and childcare. We have been to Project Cure twice. We have also visited the Brookdale care facility. Our groups have also held fundraisers benefiting Hide in Plain Sight, St. Jude’s, Unified Sports and The Florence Crittenton school supporting teenage moms. This past Saturday we had a hugely successful food collection and shelving outing to benefit IFCS.
