Prescott Sunup Rotary Club members celebrated the 100th anniversary of Rotary in Prescott by donating 100 "Kids Birthday Party in a Pan" kits to representatives of the Prescott Community Cupboard Food Bank during a presentation at the Hassayampa Hotel on November 15.
The kits include cake mix, frosting, candles, a happy birthday card, banner and balloons, all packaged in a foil cake pan, and were an idea proposed by Sunup Rotarian Lisa Doherty, in response to President Laura Vanderberg's call for service projects that meet a need and give back to the Prescott community.

Welcome and Thank You to Special Guests the Embry Riddle Aeronautical University Air Force ROTC.

The "Kids Birthday Party in a Pan" project is nearing completion. One hundred of the kits were assembled by (l to r) Rotarians Marsha Teller, Lisa Doherty and volunteer Cyndy Bailey. They include cake mix, frosting, candles, a happy birthday card, banner and balloons, all packaged in a foil cake pan.

As a finishing touch, Sunup Rotary stickers will be affixed by the membership at the November 15 Rotary meeting, and the 100 kits will be presented to a representative of the Prescott Community Cupboard. The project was proposed by Lisa Doherty to help commemorate Rotary International's 100th anniversary in Prescott, and most importantly, to help parents and guardians who rely on the local food bank, make the kind of birthday celebration that every child deserves.

Ten SunUpians and PHS Interactors joined forces today to clean and repair the Northern AZ Crutches for Africa mobility devices. The Crutches and walkers are donated from across our area, and, Thanks to Ron Williams, from the Rotary Club of Prescott, they are stored at his Storage Units- Ponderosa Storage in Prescott. Rather than leaving clean up and repair the devices to those in the field, the team decided to take care of them here, where we have all the tools and supplies we need!
