Remember and Honor Those Who Gave the Ultimate Sacrifice While Protecting and Defending Our Country
Memorial Day (originally known as Decoration Day) is a federal holiday in the United States for mourning the U.S. military personnel who have died while serving in the United States armed forces. It is observed on the last Monday of May. It was formerly observed on May 30 from 1868 to 1970.
 
 
College Day at Bates Dual Immersion Elementary School.
Co- President Laura Uslan had the pleasure of assisting in College Day at Bates Dual Immersion Elementary School today! All students received a college t-shirt (courtesy of Bates PTA) and pinned their name on the huge US map to show where their college is! The idea is for students to understand that there are colleges everywhere, and one of them is just perfect for YOU! Congratulations to lead teacher Lisa Mitchell and Principal Kiwan Gomez for bringing back this great Delta tradition!

The Awarding of Scholarships
Delta High School, Senior Awards Night, May 17, 2023 - 6:00PM

Laura and Tom Uslan, Co-Presidents of the Rotary Club of Walnut Grove will be presenting our club Scholarships to Delta High School students in multiple categories.  To achieve a RCWG scholarship, a student completes an application and interviews with their school counselors and the RCWG Scholarship committee, Kim Tranum and Thom Wiseman, chaired for the first year by Laura Uslan.  Some of these achieving students are the first in their families to attend college or trade schools.

Proudly, all Memorial Scholarships have been funded in memory of a beloved family member or business associate, and most graduated from Delta High School in years passed.

Tune in on Wednesday May 17, 2023 to find out the Scholarship Award recipients

Co-PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE FOR ROTARY 

“Imagine, a world that deserves our best where we get up each day knowing that we can make a difference.” ~ 2022-23 Rotary International President Jennifer Jones
 
Rotary International President Jennifer Jones imagines a Rotary where members act to make their dreams become reality and they make the most of their club experiences. She urges members to engage more with each other and use these connections to build partnerships that change the world.
 
On the local level, we are proud to serve as the Rotary Club of Walnut Grove’s Co-presidents for the 2022-23 year! We share the belief that Rotarians make a difference in our local community and in our world through service projects and other activities. We fully support and plan to continue our traditional local events such as the speech contest, scholarship awards, pumpkin contest, community clean-up, dictionary give-away, and more! Additionally, we intend to support local students through a renewed mentorship program at local schools.
 
As we celebrate our 75 th year of “Service Above Self” in the Rotary Club of Walnut Grove, we are grateful for the faith placed in us by our fellow Rotarians. We are thankful for the opportunity to “Imagine Rotary” in traditional and new ways as we serve the local community!
