High School Students at 2019 Regional Contest
Every year in the spring, Rotary Clubs across North Texas District 5790 challenge local high school students to tackle a question or problem by applying what is known as the Rotary Four Way Test. THEN they have to give a 5-minute speech in front of club members, family, teachers, and judges!

Members of the 14 clubs can go to the END COVID in Denton County Webpageat endcovidindentoncounty.org to learn how they can participate.
The webpage provides several ways members can help. Volunteering at the mass vaccination hubs. Working to identify individuals that don't have access to register for their shots. Donations that are targeted to pandemic impacted families, Blood Drives, Convalescent Plasmz and others. Webpage is available to Rotary members, their family, neighbors and friends.
In this time of economic crisis, many Rotary members are finding themselves in an unfortunate state so many Americans are experiencing either unemployment or severe downturns in their business revenues.
We believe Rotarians should help each other, so we are launching the Districts 5790 and 5810 Business & Job Connection.
