News Around District 5840

May is Rotary’s month to celebrate Youth Service—a time to recognize that one of our greatest responsibilities is investing in the next generation of leaders, peacemakers, and changemakers. Across District 5840, our clubs are making a lasting impact through Interact, Rotaract, RYLA, scholarships, mentoring programs, and student leadership opportunities. These efforts do more than support young people academically or professionally—they help shape character, compassion, and a lifelong commitment to service above self.

It’s time to celebrate the Clubs that went above and beyond this year by completing the Rotary Rockstar Challenge! Designed to strengthen public image and showcase the incredible work happening across our communities, the challenge included six levels of activities focused on storytelling, engagement, membership promotion, and visibility.

On April 11th, members of the Rotary Club of Fredericksburg participated in Highway Clean Up on West Highway 290 in Gillespie County. The club participates in this event several times a year to help with the beautification of the area highway. Members of all ages come together to clean up this 2 mile stretch of roadway. 
Members of the San Antonio Oak Hills Rotary rolled up their sleeves to help protect and beautify our community while partnering with the Great Springs Project for a cleanup effort.
 
Working together, volunteers helped remove litter and preserve the natural beauty of the area—showing how small actions can create a big impact for our environment and future generations.
 
Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time to keep our spaces clean and thriving!
