Interact event at Feed My Starving Children
Eagan High School Interact Club hosts event at Feed My Starving Children
EHS Interact Club has selected a date for an Interact Club/ Feed My Starving Children event. We are packing meals from 2:30 – 4:30 on Monday October 10.
 
We will need some adult volunteers to join us. I have passed this message along to several Rotary  club members I know that I thought might be interested. I am hoping for 40-50 kids which would mean 8 – 10 adults volunteering. Are any of you available and interested? It has been super fun in the past.
 
Rotarians that are interested, please email Bill Wirsbinski, EHS Interact Coordinator at William.Wirsbinski@district196.org
