It's been a long-standing tradition for Rotary 14 to host a picnic for collegiate students in our community. This year’s picnic will take place Sunday, September 8, 2024, at 2:30 p.m. at Holmes Lake.
Here you’ll find a list of items we hope to have donated to help make the event a success. Additionally, we’re looking for volunteers to assist with setup or clean up. Or, if you have a spare gift card lying around that you'd like to donate, we’ll take that, too! Every little bit helps.
Our greatest needs include:
Cases of Water
Use of a Cooler with Ice
Desserts (non-meltable)
Give away prizes for students (Lincoln swag, gift cards, university clothing, gift baskets etc.)
Food (Vegetarian and vegan options)
Help with setup from 1:30-2:30 p.m.
Help with cleanup from 5-6 p.m.
This year we're providing three options to help make it easier to donate:
Deliver items to a Rotary meeting (on or before September 3rd )
Deliver to Holmes Lake on the day of the picnic
Request a pick up (We will come to you and get the donation. You’ll be contacted after submitting.)
