🌍✨ Making an Impact Beyond Borders! ✨🌍

Members of the Chelsea Rotary Club and Chelsea High School Interact Club are proudly representing our community at DISCON ’26 in Chatham! 🇨🇦
While there, they’ve connected with and been inspired by Rotary International members from around the world 🌎—sharing ideas, building friendships, and strengthening their commitment to service.

Their impact didn’t stop there! 💚 They rolled up their sleeves to help plant 300 trees along the shoreline of Lake Erie, along with participating in other meaningful service projects that support our environment and global community. 🌱

We are so proud of these leaders for representing Chelsea with such heart, dedication, and purpose. The future is bright with service-minded individuals like these!

Recently, the Chelsea High School Interact Club, along with their group advisor and Rotary liaison, took the plunge for a great cause.

They participated in the Polar Plunge to help raise money for the Special Olympics, braving what was said to be one of the coldest plunges this fundraiser has seen in years.

Their willingness to jump into icy water shows the true spirit of service, leadership, and community support that Interact and Rotary are all about. A big thank you to these students and leaders for supporting such an incredible organization.
