On Friday, December 14, 2018, the Rotary Clubs of McHenry (Noon Lunch and Sunrise) co-funded the Annual Christmas Banquet for clients and staff of the Pioneer Center for Human Services.  Pictured below is a check for $3,300 from the Rotary Club of McHenry Charitable Foundation, Inc, representing the Rotary Club of McHenry’s donations to Pioneer Center for the Annual Autumn Stade’s Farm outing (Thursday, October 25, 2018), co-funding of the Christmas Banquet (Friday, December 14, 2018) and Pioneer Center’s McHenry County PADS program.   
 
Our primary fundraising event is the annual Blues, Brews and BBQ’s held in late August of each year, with the 2019 BB&B scheduled for August 16, 17 and 18, 2019.  Come to BB&B – have fun and give back to our shared community.
