We had fun at the Ice Cream Social
This year's Ice Cream Social was a success from our standpoint. We were busy selling hot dogs, pop, and water right outside the kitchen in the Hudson High School cafeteria. Business was brisk!
 
Fortunately, we had a lot of dedicated voluteers helping us. They include Cathy Cook, Julie Erickson, Jenn Scheeser, Gloria and Bill Rodgers, Thom Sheridan, Kathy Cybulski, and John Murphy.
 
Right: Gloria Rodgers, Thom Sheridan, and Julie Erickson managed the cooking and kept the hot dog supply chain full. Also available were kielbasa sandwiches that Cathy Cook made. These were sold out! We may want to expand our offerings next year, because these kielbasa dogs got rave reviews. Cathy also cooked chili and brought ketchup, mustard, onions, and cheese to top off the dogs.
 
Jenn Scheeser served as our purchasing agent, buying all the hot dogs, water, and soda, and then picking everything up and delivering it to the high school just a day after returning from a business trip! 
 
Thanks to everyone who helped make this event a success! Let's make it even bigger and better next year!
 
Below: Cathy Cook and Gloria Rodgers are ready for business!

Shelly talked to us about how having a sister city came about and the many activities that the board of Landsberg does including 

● Youth Exchange Program 

● Scholarships 

● Sister City Visits 

● Educational Programs 

● Biergarten 

● Christkindlmarkt 

Shelley said volunteers are always needed and please consider volunteering. The next Hudson visit to Landsberg is July, 2027. It sounds like a really great time - consider joining them. Gloria invited them to come back to speak again in November before the Christkindlemarkt.

A message from Gloria Rodgers, club president

Welcome to Hudson Clocktower Rotary!

Since our founding more than 20 years ago, we have embraced the ideals of leadership and service in the Hudson community and in the world.

As Rotarians, we developed and launched Leadership Hudson which has resulted in the creation of many community projects benefitting the Hudson community, such as Taste of Hudson, the Farmer’s Market, Hudson Restaurant Week, the HeArt Walk and the recent “State of Mind” focusing on mental health issues.

We are dedicated to service in the Hudson community through our partnership with Hudson organizations and causes. Each year we participate in a project benefitting individuals in such ways to fulfill our mission of service above self.

Our meetings are informative with a group of community-minded individuals. We have an interesting speaker on a variety of subjects as grand in scope as world diplomacy to something more enjoyable, such as the benefits of our pollinator gardens. Be sure to check our club news page for the latest information about speakers and club functions.
 
If you’ve reached a point in your life where you’d like to give back, we welcome you! We are always looking for new members.

We are currently meeting on Wednesdays at 11:45 a.m. at Lager & Vine, except for the second Wednesday of the month, when we have a social gathering at various locations at 5:30 p.m. We hope that you will consider joining us for an informative and fun opportunity to serve others!

What is Hudson Clocktower Rotary?

Naturally, we are members of Rotary International. And because of this, we are committed to the goals of Rotary, the largest of which is the eradication of polio worldwide through the Global Polio Eradication Initiative.

But if you attend one of our meetings, you’re likely to think we’re just a friendly group of people who live or work in and around Hudson who enjoy getting together for lunch once a week. This is true. But we’re much more than that.

The video you see here does a great job of capturing exactly what we’re all about. Enjoy it, and we hope you’ll decide to come to one of our meetings to see what we’re all about.
