Happenings

As we celebrate 45 years of service, the Lake Zurich Rotary Club invites you to a festive and impactful Oktoberfest Charity Fundraiser from October 4th to October 6th, 2024, at Buffalo Creek Brewing in Long Grove. This year’s Oktoberfest will feature various family-friendly activities, including face painting, pumpkin painting, and games for both kids and adults, all set against the backdrop of a classic Bavarian atmosphere. Whether you're enjoying a stein of craft beer, participating in the games, or simply soaking up the festive spirit, there’s something for everyone at this event.

*** A highlight of the weekend will be our annual charity raffle, with a grand prize of $1,500 in cash! *** Tickets are available for $10 each or 3 for $20, and the drawing will take place on October 6th at 4 PM. YOu don't have to be present to win. All proceeds from the raffle and event will directly support the Rotary Club’s various projects, including local initiatives like Joanie’s Closet, the St. Francis de Sales Food Pantry, and the Rotary Youth Leadership Academy, as well as global efforts such as polio eradication and human trafficking awareness.

We look forward to seeing you at Oktoberfest as we celebrate our 45th anniversary and continue our mission of service above self. For more details and to purchase raffle tickets, visit the QR code above or ask a friendly Rotarian!

Please sign up to Volunteer for LZ Rotary Club's Monthly Book Giveaway!

We'll be giving away books on the third Thursday of every month and we need Rotarians and Interactors to help! We'll be giving books to needy children starting at 5:00 p.m. at the Lake Zurich Food Pantry, St. Vincent de Paul Community Center, 135 S. Buesching Rd., Lake Zurich.  We'll be done by 6:00 p.m. This is a very important project because if parents don't have money for food, they certainly won't buy books. But kids who read, succeed. 

LZ Rotary Members and Friends of Rotary who want to volunteer can sign up using this link: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0F4CABAB2AA31-50462740-book#/ or you can simply stop by and see all the good we're doing. We encourage you to do that, especially if you have never been to the LZ Community Food Pantry before. 

District 95 & SECA Interact Club students who want to volunteer can sign up using this link: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0F4CABAB2AA31-book#/
