Prescott SunUp Rotarians - 2021 Veterans Memorial Cleanup
at the Yavapai County Courthouse Plaza
Prescott SunUp Rotarians gathered again this year to clean and freshen up the All Vets memorial at the Yavapai County Courthouse. A large crew gathered on a beautiful Saturday morning to pull weeds, cut back overgrowth, clean railings, clean the granite platform and the memorial statue. They also planted new flowers, reconfigured the drip irrigation, and spread new beauty bark throughout the flower bed. And in keeping with tradition, the group sang the National Anthem and taps was played by Bruce Moeller to close out the event. In the end, the memorial is ready for another year of dedication to those who so valiantly served our country.

Several members from Sunup Rotary and Prescott Rotary joined to help an elderly couple save their house. The county had deemed their house to be unsafe with too much over growth and debris hidden in the foliage. The disabled couple were within days of being fined up to $700 per day if not cleared. Rotary attacked and by mid afternoon several trailer loads were taken to the transfer station and the job was done. Thanks to Todd Clancy for organizing, Greg Barstad for trailers and trucks, Jerry Fohrman for excellent supervision of lunch, Also AJ Sheridan, Jerry Hulm, Bud Ackerman Par Wood, Barbara Oemcke, Terry & Teri Smith, Jim Huffman, ERAU Siver Wing students and many others. Job was well done and home owners were delighted and very thankful.
