Rotary Community Core

A long-time member of the Excelsior Morning Rotary Club, Suzanne Kochevar pitched the idea of building a relationship with a business owner along Lake Street, helping them get back on their feet and sustainably grow. Her club quickly got on board — along with a number of other clubs in the district.

Suzanne connected with Lake Street Council (LSC), the business organization for the area. The partnership took time to develop, but by late 2020, a diverse group of business owners raised their hands for support, and eight local Rotary clubs sprung into action, with each club assigned to partner with a different business owner. RCC@LS was born.
