I am still saddened to know that the Niles Rotary Club has disbanded.

Service groups are things that make any community strong. They give anyone a chance to serve with like-minded people and serve the families of the community, be it with a scholarship or a pair of mittens or boots.

Today, it is enough that we are plastered to all of our screens, hand held or not. Being a part of a service group has many opportunities to give back.

Whether or not you are younger or older, there is a place for you. Energy or wisdom, it doesn’t matter.

It doesn’t really take lots to be part of these great groups. The Niles Noon Optimists meet at noon on Tuesdays, at the Ho Ping Gardens Restaurant.

Feel free to join this great group any week. We bring out the best in kids. Those kids are our future and you can be part of that future.

Come join us. Also, find us on Facebook.
