Bader Park in Merrick County is a lovely camping, hiking, swimming park that draws people from all of Nebraska and travelers on Highway 30. It seeks to bring relaxation and restoration to people of all ages. The park has some basic maintenance upkeep that need to be addressed and they hold events to raise funds to do so and to enrich the lives of the people who attend. Sunrise Rotary would like to fund two of the events, Plein Air Workshop-Paint Out Art Show in September and the Halloween event in October. Rotary would sponsor the artist for the September event and that cost is $250; and then sponsor the Halloween event which would also be $250; plus food, marketing and other supplies. Participants pay for the art workshop and there is an entrance fee for the Halloween event. Club members could help with the events as directed by staff. With our district funds of $477 and our club's 25% of $120 we could donate $597 for these events.
