What Have We Been Up To?
 
 
Community Service has always been a tenant of the Rotary Club of Fair Oaks.  One of the most rewarding regular activities of the club is to support the Orangevale-Fair Oaks Food Bank.  We do this with various projects including monthly service providing food to families in need, and picking fruit in the community when needed.  Our members enjoy the opportunity to help families in the Orangevale-Fair Oaks community.
Every year on during the Halloween season, the Rotary Club of Fair Oaks hosts the Safer Halloween event for children of all ages to stroll the village of Fair Oaks, visit the local businesses, and 'trick or treat' their way to receive candy and books from local rotarians.  Of course, this wouldn't be nearly as much fun if our volunteers didn't 'get dressed' for the occasion to make the day frightful and fun!
Betsy Alberts, the Fair Oaks Rotary President for the 2025-2026 year, has been an active member of Rotary for 14 years.  Betsy belongs to a number of civic organizations including the Womens' Thursday Club, the Inner Wheel Club of Fair Oaks, and previously with the Assistance League of Sacramento.  Betsy has been a resident of the Fair Oaks for over 30 years and her two children, Brian and Erin, have attended schools in Fair Oaks and Orangevale.
 

 

Fair Oaks Rotary Wins
Best Club in Area
 
With a bunch of admiring club members and other district 5180 Rotarians in the audience, President Keith Walter accepted the Gold Star award from District Governor Steve Turner as Assistant Governor (and Fair Oaks Rotarian) Diana Cralle looked on.  As one of the eight Gold Star clubs in the district, we were recognized as having had a pretty good year.  We'll add this to the collection of awards we've won over the years.
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.
