Military Care package Drive

The Chisago Lakes Rotary assisted the Forest Lake High School Rotary Interact Club, in Partnership with the Hugo Yellow Ribbon Network, to help collect items for their Military Care Package Drive. 

Results from the 2025 Military Care Package Drive, run by the
Forest Lake High School Rotary Interact club:  They raised
$5,000 plus many food items donated. They were able to send
care packages to 120 soldiers and 90 airmen from the Minnesota
National Guard.

Your generous contributions helped deliver comfort and support to those who protect our freedoms daily.  Follow on Instagram at @RotaryInteractCares and @flhsrotary to keep updated on fundraising progress.

The Rotary Peace Park and Trail came together with the goal to make peace visible in this community. Rotary Clubs strive to do good works and often multiple clubs cooperate on a project, which is what happened for this Chisago City location, overseen by Chisago Lakes Rotary.

Celebration of the Lakes- 2025!

February 8-9, 2025

Despite the 6 inch snowfall the night before, Celebration of the Lakes was a huge success!  Thank you to Josh Soderlund (Soderlunds Wood Mill), Jason Sweno (Team Sweno Tree Service) and Jeff Bouchee (Lake State Carpet Cleaning) for cutting the ice, and plowing the snow.  And thank you to our friends at Chisago Lakes Good Neighbors Club for their extra volunteer help!
