A great group of Early Birds helped beautify the Rotary intersection on Saturday morning!

Posted on Jun 22, 2019

The Rotary Intersection, which sits at the confluence of South Eight Street, South Pier Drive, and Indiana Avenue is maintained by the Sheboygan Early Bird Rotary Club. An increasingly important hub in the city, it leads to Blue Harbor and the South Pier District, the Downtown area and Riverfront, and the upcoming FreshTech Innovation District and JMKAC Art Preserve.

On June 22, 2019 Early Bird Rotarians planted and mulched the lower level of the terraced garden, bringing new life and beauty to the busy traffic junction.
