Good Morning!
Welcome! Each week, C-U Sunrisers enjoy fellowship, fun and lots of laughter while supporting worthy causes in our community, nationally and internationally. Our meetings are every Thursday at 6:45 am. We gather at the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church at 2101 S Prospect Ave, Champaign, IL 61820.
Invitation to memorial tree planting to honor Lou Simpson
Dear friends of Lou and Trina, the Kranzs, have arranged a memorial tree to be planted near the Decker Garden next Thursday. Trina has extended this invite for the occasion to Lou’s friends and fellow Sunrisers:
Please join us as a Silver Linden will be planted in Lou’s name near Decker Garden on Thursday, May 11 at 11:30. Via Champaign Park District, a gift from Del & Dave Kranz. -Trina
Our club will be planting a memorial tree of our own but details are still pending.
2022 Small Club of the Year
We’ve always thought we were a special club with an active, engaged membership. Turns out, we were right. This Small Club of the Year Award is well-earned, and hearing outgoing DG Heather Stoa read the list of our accomplishments was impressive (and exhausting). Congratulations Sunrisers!
Club social with veterans at the U of I Chez Center
We enjoyed a club social mingling with the veterans at the U of I Chez Center. The Chez Center is the only residential campus veterans center in the US. The ADA accessible center is home to 14 veterans and provides services to many more. Garrett Anderson gave tours of the state of the art facility.
400 Hygiene Kits for C-U at Home
CU Sunrise Rotary Club members and Central High School Interact members assembled 400 hygiene kits that will be donated to C-U at Home. A District Rotary grant provided funds for the project.
