Dripping Springs Rotary Club to hold Veterans Day Tribute

The Dripping Springs Rotary Club will be hosting its 2020 Veterans Day Tribute on November 11, 2020, from 3 pm until 6 pm. Due to the Covid-19 virus, the traditional dinner and dance celebration can’t be held this year; instead there will be a ‘drive-thru’ celebration to recognize all area veterans and present them with ‘Drinks, Dinner, Dance, and Dessert in a Bag’.

All veteran’s are invited to stop by and receive their free gift bags. The ‘drivethru’ will be held in the parking lot at the corner of Mercer Street and Old Fitzhugh Road (across the street from DS Rental Center).

In 2019, through community support, the Rotary Club donated $5000.00 to localVeterans organizations towards the construction of their new Patriot’s Hall building. Funds raised this year will also be donated to the Patriot’s Hall construction fund for the use of all veterans.

Locally the Rotary Club of Dripping Springs has sponsored projects such as updated playground equipment at City playgrounds, multi-year support for a character building program at a local elementary school, litter pickup along RR12, construction of concession and restroom facilities at the local sports park, construction of therapeutic gardens at a local assisted living facility, construction of improvements for the Dripping Springs Chamber of Commerce, supporting the local food bank, and helping a local center for disadvantaged youth with repairs and improvements.

If you are interested in helping support our local community by joining the Dripping Springs Rotary Club, please contact the club president, Glenn Wash at Broadway Bank (512-585-8652).
