It's that time of year again when the Denton-Lake Cities Rotary Club puts out flags for their Flag Program.
 
 
 
 
Founded in 1992, with approximately 150 subscribers, the Flag Program is currently the Denton-Lake Cities Rotary Clubs’ largest fundraiser. In 2021 the club planted more than 468 flags at commercial locations and at over 2000 residential.

With the help of a Rotary Foundation 200K Global Grant, and funds matched by 9 Rotary Clubs, Herman traveled to the Batwa Community of Uganda to accompany the delivery, setup and calibration of the 4 ICU beds, portable Xray machines, monitors and teleradiology equipment.
David Becker and Gene Davenport with the Denton-Lake Cities Rotary Club were out distributing dictionaries this week to the third graders at the 2 Krum DISD elementary schools.
 
For many children, this is the first book they have ever owned. This year the DLCRC distributed 2700 dictionaries to 25 schools in Denton, 2 in Sanger, 3 in Argyle, 3 in Lake Dallas and 2 in Krum.
Introduced by member Gene Davenport (Left), Larry provided and excellent presentarion on Texas' newest lake, Lake Ralph Hall.
 
Lake Ralph Hall will be one of the state’s biggest water projects in the last 30 years.
 
Named after the longtime US Congressman Ralph Hall from Rockwall, the reservoir will be located on the North Sulphur River in Southeast Fannin County. The project is being built by Upper Trinity Regional Water District (UTRWD) and will provide crucial water for an area whose population is projected to increase nearly five-fold in the next 50 years
The Salvation Army Curbside Carolers played for the Denton-Lake Cities Rotary Club breakfast.
 
In addition to their band, they gave us some insight into their organization and the service work they do.
The Salvation Army was founded in the U.K. in 1865 by William Booth as a volunteer "army" formed to do mission work - their motto was "Soup, Soap and Salvation". The "Red Kettle" project, which you see every Christmas time, was started in 1891 to help feed the poor. They became a presence in the U.S. in 1880 and in 1889 they came to Dallas.
