On Saturday, December 5, 2009, the Chisago Lakes Rotary Club, with the assistance of Santa and the Chisago City and Lindstrom Fire Departments, collected toys for Anonymous Santa and the Family Pathway food shelf. This event was an overwhelming success. Over $500 was donated, along with numerous toys and food. These donations will benefit families from the community who are in need in an effort to make their Christmas brighter. |

The Chisago Lakes Rotary Club wished our exchange student from Taiwan farewell during our annual lake cruise held in July. Candy returned home after spending a year in the Chisago Lakes Area while staying with three different host families. We really enjoyed the privilege of sponsoring Candy and are looking forward to sponsoring another student in the future.
