Riverbend Rotarians "getting trashed" on Milton Road.

Trash-ing Our Way to a Cleaner Alton!

September 09, 20232 min read

Riverbend Rotary Champions Clean Streets in
Annual Alton City-Wide Trash Pickup

Today marked another successful effort by the Riverbend Rotary Club in the Annual Alton City-Wide Litter Cleanup. Led by our dedicated members, a group of nine including a member's young daughter and two esteemed visitors from another Rotary club, took on the task of beautifying our city streets.

Armed with gloves, bags, and a resolve to make a difference, our team meticulously combed both sides of Milton Road, stretching from Broadway to Brown Street. By the end of the endeavor, several hefty bags of trash had been collected, including the ever-present empty bottles of Fireball – a familiar sight for our seasoned participants. How to repurpose Fireball Bottles.

Yet, an encouraging trend is emerging. Our biannual participation in this endeavor has led to a noticeable reduction in litter. Each time we venture out, the amount of trash seems to diminish – a testament to the ongoing efforts of community groups and conscientious residents.

Such initiatives not only contribute to a cleaner and more appealing city but also serve as a reminder of the power of collective action. Every small effort counts, and together, we're making a big difference.

To all our members and volunteers: Thank you for your unwavering commitment to our community. Let's continue to work towards a cleaner and greener Alton.

Craft Your Perfect Presentation with

Our New Riverbend Rotary
Speakers' Template!

Speaking to a Rotary Club audience can be an exciting, but sometimes daunting, opportunity.

We've created a template to help guide you in crafting a presentation that not only informs but also entertains and inspires.

Using this tool, you'll be able to articulate your passions, highlight the importance of your cause, and engage your audience in meaningful ways.

As an example, we've used a humorous, imaginative topic: "The Society for the Protection and Advancement of Invisible Unicorns (SPA-IU)".

This fictitious charity serves as an illustrative guide for how you might structure your own presentation, providing a clear and engaging path from introduction to conclusion.

This template, along with Toastmasters best practices, will assist you in building a compelling narrative, connecting with your audience, and delivering a powerful call to action.

Remember, the key to a successful presentation is authenticity, preparation, and a deep understanding of your topic.

Now, it's your turn to bring your passions to the stage. Whether you're

advocating for invisible unicorns, local community initiatives, or global change, we're excited to hear your story and learn from your journey.

Together, we'll continue the Rotary Club tradition of learning, sharing, and inspiring action in our community.

Get started with our presentation template today and prepare to make a lasting impression at your next Rotary Club meeting!
