Peoria-North Rotarians complete a service project at the Rotary Centennial Pavilion. On Saturday, October 24, 12 P-N Rotarians braved the dreary, cool weather to lay sod and plant flowers at the Rotary Centennial Pavilion located at the base of Detweiller Park. The Pavilion which was built in 2004-2005 was a joint effort of the Peoria Rotary Clubs spearheaded by our P-N Rotarian JEFF RANDOLPH. Great job, the Pavilion looks awesome! ![]() | ![]() |
