Considering the initial success with the Rotary Club Norfolk Sunrise ‘Take a Bite Out of Norfolk’ (TaBooN) initiative, the club was encouraged to take a 'second bite'; so, a Fall '21 edition of this popular community support event was thought to be a ‘must’. The club organizers kept the original aim to create a fundraiser that promoted the community and, at the same time, curated a wide and interesting selection of Norfolk food and products.Following a dreary start to the distribution day, the sun came out for the Sunrise Club (apropos) and all enjoyed a great, COVID-friendly, drive-thru morning. In the end, 147 product packages were sold; each stuffed with 14 different items 
from our county. What a wonderful way to partner with our local Norfolk businesses to showcase our bountiful county and raise funds to put back into the same community.

We could not have done this as well as we did without a great facility to carry it out, so we (once again) offer a huge thank you to Kristine Carey and Venture Norfolk.
Congratulations to our RCNS organizing committee - Gail Catherwood, Gail Bouw, Mary Mercato, Cathy Harrop, Joanne Kiefer and our Club President Louise Schebesch – a great fundraising event and a terrific way to connect our products to our community.
