Club News
Members from the Holmen Area Rotary Club and representatives from the Village of Holmen met to formally hand over the new Bubbler, Bottle Filler and Dog Watering Station to the Village of Holmen. The new Bubbler is located in Deerwood Park right next to the ball park shelter. Holmen's Deerwood Park is the Village's most heavily used park and consists of multiple ball fields, tennis courts, soccer fields, basketball courts, walking trail and a large playground. The bubbler furthers Rotary's mission by providing the community easy access to clean water, to promote healthy hydration while promoting the use of re-usable bottles to help protect the environment. A dog watering station was also added to hydrate our furry companions during the hot summer. The bubbler was professionally installed by Niebuhr Plumbing & Heating with funds supplied by HARC and also a generous grant from Rotary District 6250.
  
The Holmen Area Rotary Club, along with the Holmen High School Interact Club, Great Rivers United Way and the Township of Holland installed United Way's Born learning trail onto the new Gordan Van Dunk Trail located at the township's site off of County MH. The Learning trail sets up 10 activities that parents can do together that foster learning. The 4x4 treated posts for the signs were donated to the project by Beaver Builders. There will be a dedication of the Van Dunk trail on Saturday May 16th at 10 am. 
   
 
The Halfway Creek Park Rotary Clock has been rejuvenated.  Over the winter it has been cleaned, repainted, and now restored back to where it was in the park for all to enjoy.
The St Clare Health Mission is very important to the coulee region.  It has been in our community for over 33 years and serves a variety of areas.  The impact on unsheltered, uninsured has been a saving grace.  With the cost of health care rising- this is a valuable asset for the community.
WEB is a program at Holmen Middle School that encourages 6th graders when they enter the Middle School.  They are mentored by 8th graders and shown where things are, activities to participate in, and make friends.  WEB=Where Everyone Belongs
 
The Holmen Rotary Clock located in Deerwood Park is getting a facelift and her innards adjusted. We hope to have her back in action come spring. 

The Turkey delegation that is part of the friendship exchange visited our club meeting today.
