Sunrise Rotary is a breakfast club that meets at 7:15 a.m. each Friday morning at the Gamber Community Center, located at 4 S.E. Independence Ave., Lee's Summit, MO. Lee's Summit Sunrise Rotary was chartered on March 26, 1999, and is strongly committed to the ideals of Rotary as depicted in our club vision statement: To Be A Vibrant Service Club That Is Engaged In The Community At Home And Abroad.

Sunrise Rotary welcomes all who have a desire for community service and interested in growing friendships with other service minded community members. Over the years Sunrise Rotary has developed a reputation for international service. It has hosted multiple international delegations from Russian and France focusing on understanding our medical, construction, education and legal systems. The club has also participated in school literacy programs for children in Central America and has built eight water purification plants at schools in Central Thailand.

Locally, the club was responsible for raising over $100,000 used in constructing a Legacy Park playground for children with special physical needs.

Our annual service projects of Fly A Flag, Empty Bowls and ChiliFest generate funds in excess of $30,000 which are donated to charitable organizations both at the local as well as international level.

We invite you to come join us for breakfast and experience the camaraderie of Sunrise Rotary!

FEED LEE'S SUMMIT

Lee's Summit Sunrise Rotary Club is excited to announce a new event supporting Lee's Summit food pantries: "Feed Lee's Summit"! It is scheduled for the evening of November 14, 2019 (5:30-9:00 p.m.), and will be held at the John Knox Pavilion. Feed Lee's Summit is intended to replace Empty Bowls. Empty Bowls has generated over $200,000 in it's history, but with your help, we expect the inaugural Feed Lee's Summit to triple our annual contribution to the 2019 beneficiaries: Coldwater, One Good Meal, Lee's Summit Social Services and Meals on Wheels!

Feed Lee's Summit will have even more Lee's Summit restaurants offering delicious tastings of soups, breads and desserts. With the larger event space, tables and chairs will be available for everyone. With both live and silent auctions, you can expect a fabulous array of desirable items. Musical entertainment will be provided by Mizzou Idol Winner, Bre Lahane. So don't miss this night of food, fun and entertainment, all the while supporting those in need in Lee's Summit!

Tickets are $60.00 each and can be purchased online at the "Click Me" link provided. We look forward to seeing you at Feed Lee's Summit

FLY A FLAG PROGRAM

Sunrise Rotary's Fly A Flag program offers Lee's Summit a unique service in that for four holidays each year you can have a beautiful 3 ft x 5 ft American Flag placed in front of your home or business. Already over 240 Lee's Summit businesses and residencies fly the flag thru this program. The cost is $50 per year but the benefits stretch much farther. Your flag subscription revenue is directed right back into our community. Just some of the benefactors of the Fly A Flag program are Hope House, Hillcrest Transitional Housing, scholarships for local high school students and more. It is truly remarkable how easy it is for you to make an impact thru this program.

WHO IS THIS MOTLEY CREW??

None other than the Sunrise Rotary Board for the past Rotary year! Yes, it was a time to celebrate the club's successes at Legacy Park. Even thought it was a warm summer day on June 12, the enthusiasm of the club members and shade of the shelter house resulted in a fun time. All in the spirit of Rotary!
