Uptown York Rotary Club

Tonight our club was thrilled to welcome Carlos Diaz, co-owner of Pineapple Home Gallery located in Downtown York’s Market District. With clean-burning candles made in-house, lovingly hand-crafted items and a pet duck named Peeps, this is a can’t-miss destination! Thank you, Carlos, for sharing your business’ journey with us!

This evening's collab club service project found UYRC members and friends, along with volunteers from the Garden Club of York and the Rotary Club of York, tackling thistles, vines, sticky bedstraw and errant maple seedlings to tidy up the landscaping at the Liberty Garden at Kiwanis Lake. Now everything's coming up roses!

Great to be back at Cottage Hill Garden, York, PA. this morning for phase two of our arbor and bench building project. Monthly service projects like this are a wonderful way to show our Rotary commitment to serving the needs of our community AND a good way to have some fun with fellow members and guests who join in. Service Committee chair, Tom Smith, led the charge on the project, making it easy for members to step up and help. Club members learned new and expanded their sk...ills for this build, which will eventually hold up the CHG grape vines, providing garden guests a shaded place to relax and enjoy the space. Grateful to garden manager, @AnnalissaGojmerac, for pitching in with the project and for sharing stories and garden goodies with us, too. Lots of inspiration among the rows of straw bales and plants, and a nice place to run into friends, too.
