HHSS INTERACT Club at work in our community
Every year the Interact club at HHSS completes their “Shoebox Initiative” where they collect items and donations
within their school to create shoeboxes to give to the less fortunate teenagers in the community. The shoeboxes contain
hygiene items, entertainment items, and clothing, so that the less fortunate can also receive gifts during the holiday
season. This year, the club chose to expand this fundraiser to the community, as they want to become more involved and
build a stronger community during these tough times due to the pandemic. Members of the club can easily be contacted through
the Facebook Page “HHSS Interact”
Donations can be dropped off at HHSS marked "Interact club"
Helping out in our commumity is what we do. Recent examples:
Minden Rotary is responsible for the volunteer staffing of the vaccination clinic in the S.G Nesbitt Arena in Minden
Rotarian Lynda Litwin replenishes Covid screening and consent forms at Molly's Bistro and Bakery (yes - that's Molly)
The forms were used for the original clinic in the Haliburton Medical Centre, they are not required for the clinic starting April 7 in the new arena
However, reviewing the questions on the form will prepare you for your vaccination appointment

ALL FACE to FACE Meetings are CANCELLED for the pandemic. Please join one of our ZOOM meetings. The club meets every Monday, normally at Mark's restaurant in Minden. Meetings start at 5:45 pm and usually
includes dinner (from the menu), followed by a speaker talking about a topic of interest to the community,
then some club business that needs attention. Meetings are very informal
and a lot of fun. Come out to one or more meetings as a guest and experience
the camaraderie enjoyed by your fellow citizens of Minden. In case the meeting is moved to another
location or replaced by a club activity, please let us know you are coming by sending an email to info@mindenrotary.ca
