10 GLEANINGS IN FALL 2011: 
Kids did a lot of the gleaning on Sunday, November 20 in the mud as it was raining most of the time. MORE PHOTOS: http://goo.gl/3VHwG
Thanks to  Kathleen Creighton Fuchs and her brother Dale Creighton, Rotarians and others gleaned Dale's fields so the potatoes left after commercial gleaning went to good use.

The Rotary Club of Kern River Valley helps support many local charities and non-profits, as well as International projects (End Polio, Mosquito Nets for African, Haiti Relief, etc.). Following our largest event in yearts, the Rotary KRV USO Stage Door Canteen (see photos), our treasury is at it's lowest point in years. We have a number of big fund-raisers coming (Whiskey Flat Days in February, Rotary KRV Run to Eradicate Polio in early April, our Car Show in May, etc.). To raise money so we can continue our support of deserving local projects, we are planning to hold 3 bake sales over the next 90 days. To offer something for our bake sale, CONTACT: Cheryl Wright (760) 608-9861 Our first Bake Sale on Saturday, January 15, 2011, made $272 for our charities. Rotarians Elaine Forge, Richard Rowe, Darlene Wolowiec & Cheryl Wright manned our tables.

Humanitarian trip to India forever changes, motivates local doctor
Valerie Cassity, Special to the Kern Valley Sun
At 4 a.m. on Jan. 27, 2009, just hours after being honored as the Kern River Valley Woman of the Year, Dr. Holly Spohn-Gross boarded an airplane bound for India, where she spent ten days working on behalf of the Rotary Club to administer polio vaccinations to countless children in the face of extreme poverty and pollution. She has returned home changed by the experience, seeking a way to help the people she met there in a concrete way that eludes her. | | Posted by Richard Rowe
