We have a knack for P.A.C.K.

For our July service project, we helped pack at  P.A.C.K. Savannah, which helps multiple organizations in Savannah pack supplies and food, and currently distributes around 10,000 bags of food to local children each month.
 
On July 28, Metro Rotarians “packed” the warehouse to help put together meal kits and back to school packs for our community’s schools and neighbors. What an amazing organization we’re proud to support. See all the school supplies? A big pat on the back to our members who helped make back to school easier for the kids.


Let's get ready to rumble, Metro Maniacs!

New board, new shenanigans! Introducing 2020’s METRO MANIA!  With Covid and our lack of in-person meetings, our focus on engagement is important more than ever. METRO MANIA’s goal is to keep us engaged, while having fun (wrestler-style), by collecting points through the Rotary year.
 
Each of you have been assigned to a team - The Grisly Misfits, The Doomsday Devils, The Piledriver Posse, and The Mighty Mighty Bruised Bones with color-coordinated bandanas. At each meeting, we'll bounce the Reigning Champ (the team that’s has the most points). Come up with a your alter ego wrestling name, a team catchphrase, and don your best festive costume and let’s see which team collects the most points at the end of the year.
