Dear Rotary
 
On the behalf of Mayfield high schools Interact Club we would like to explain to you a little bit about our progress we have made thus far in 2019. Since the beginning of the school year we have gathered over 150 active members. Our club has partaken in many community service events. As the fall started, our club came to visit and help out with senior citizens at a local nursing home called Kemper House. One of our most popular events, Taste of Hillcrest, was a big hit with Interact members helping buss tables and serve drinks. During October, we engaged in many Halloween events by serving food, running games, and wearing spooky costumes at The Elementary and Middle Schools, as well as Mayfield Village.
 
One of our biggest volunteering events that is coming up this month is Leaf raking for senior citizens. We will be teaming up with three other clubs in our school and raking leaves for senior citizens who are not able to by themselves. The most recent event our club was able to help out with was Highland Hts Lions ClamBake to benefit Millridge elementary hearing program. We helped raise money by selling raffle tickets that was later donated to millridge elementary school. We have been participating in this event for three years now raising more attention and money every year, working with Lions Club of Highland Hts has been an honor and it allowed for an opportunity for our community to come together and help out for a great cause. Looking forward we wish to be more involved in our community and help organizations in our neighborhood that need our help.
