On Saturday, October 8, the Biscuit Acres Volunteers and Fire Station #32 hosted the second annual Pancakes for Pooches breakfast. Several Southside Rotarians showed up to help dish out pancakes and sausages from 6 a.m. – 12 p.m.

And when all was said and done, the fundraiser netted $6,000 for Biscuit Acres.

Go Southside!

Eagle Scouts Honored at Southside Rotary

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

The Eagle Scout (tallest in photos) is Grant Williams. He is the Scout from Troop 945 who designed and constructed 15 wood frames that hold the waste buckets at Biscuit Acres. The wood frames have served an important purpose of keeping the buckets from receiving weather damage and creates a more sanitary set-up for visitors & volunteers to use. The wood frames were constructed in his Dad’s wood working shop at home.

The other Eagle Scout is Mitchell Moore from the same Scout Troop: 945. He delivered the frames to an industrial shop to have them spray treated with an all weather surface solution. This made them water proofed and will last increase their use longevity. Mitchell also organized and led a team to affix our five shade sails to the Biscuit Acres shade structure and two water stations.

Both Scouts received credit for their community work at BA as a part of the Eagle Scout award process. Many thanks go to Grant & Mitchell and their very supportive Dads. Southside Rotary presented the two Scouts each a certificate of appreciation and Troop 945 a $200 donation to help pay for their monthly camping expenses.
