Fair Oaks Rotary goes BIG on the
Big Day of Service

So, what's the Big Day of Service? Well, Fair Oaks and several other local communities come together annually to design and perform dozens of service projects that improve their communities. This year, the Fair Oaks Rotary not only participated with a couple of projects of our own, but we were one of the lead sponsors of the entire event. Kickoff was at the Bella Vista High School football stadium where a crowd of about 1,000 listened to several (thankfully short) speeches by local dignitaries before heading off for their 65+ projects.



One crew headed to a parking lot adjacent to Fair Oaks Village that had turned into a dumping ground for all kinds of stuff, and they made it pristine, hopefully helping to alleviate the chronic parking deficiency in the village.


Our other crew went to Fair Oaks cemetery and planted a memorial tree to honor a prominent member of the community (and wife of one of our Rotarians) who died recently. Several members who should have known better actually climbed that ladder, but we all survived.
All in all, the day was a great success, so we'll likely be back next year.
