Rotary Club of New Berlin

It is our pleasure to assist the New Berlin Parks Department by helping to spruce up Calhoun Park. Club members will don work gloves, and dig into an assortment of tasks to make Calhoun Park and even nicer place to enjoy a summer day or a softball game.

Because of this project, we will not have a regular meeting on this day. We'll be back at the New Berlin Hills clubhouse on June 12.

Please join us for this year's Relay For Life. This run will be a night to remember and full of hope, courage, strength and inspiration.

The event runs from 6:00 a.m. July 19 to 6:00 a.m. July 20. Participants will stay overnight at Eisenhower High School in New Berlin.

There is a $10 registration fee for each person within the team. We suggest paying that right away so you do not forget. Anyone who raises $100 or more by June 5th will receive a t-shirt.

Whether you want to walk for 1 hour or all 12, you are welcome. Any questions, contact team captains Stephanie Reiske or Kate Wall.

Enjoy some great fun and great pizza as you help support a worthy cause. The Rotary Club of New Berlin, in conjunction with Stonefire Pizzza Co., is hosting an exclusive Family Fun Fest on August 11. Proceeds from this event will go toward YMC's Splash Program.

Drowning is the 2nd leading cause of death for children ages 1-14 years of age in the United States. 19% of the drownings occur in public pools that have certified lifeguards on duty. The majority of these drownings occurs due to lack of formal training, poor supervision of children, and lack of safety precautions when boating.

The Splash program was created by the YMCA to help reach the younger population in our communities who needed to be taught the safety skills need to be safe in and around water. After extensive research they decided to target the 2nd grade age group. The program is designed to teach basic water safety around pools and waterfronts as well as water ways in the community. The design has a classroom portion as well as a pool portion. At the pool we have the kids practice the safety skills they learned in the classroom portion of the program to reinforce these lifesaving lessons. They get some free time/open swim time as well.

Family Fun Fest runs from 4:00 - 7:00 p.m. Stonefire Pizza Co. is offering a family four-pack for only $59.90. The event is closed to the general public;  you must purchase tickets in advance.
