Rotary Club

The last few weeks of winter can sometimes be the busiest for the folks at the Butte Rescue Mission. Even though the bulk of the subzero temperatures are behind us, more can come at any time as can heavy snow, sleet and conditions that make surviving outside almost unmanageable. At the same time, many of the shelves at the Mission's pantry are down to their last items this time of year from a busy winter of feeding and sheltering our town's homeless population. That is why the Butte Interact Club is again having their "Cold Hands, Warm Hearts" event this Saturday and Sunday at the Butte Wal Mart.

What could be better than watching a stream of rubber ducks float down a lazy river on a cool, Southwest Montana late summer's evening? Being able to win money on it, of course. And better yet, helping out the Butte Parks and Trails Foundation through the work of our local Rotary Club.
