The Run for Community Project which was co-ordinated by Frankston High and Frankston Sunrise to raise funds for Community Support Frankston.  The event was held on Saturday 14^th September at Core 24 in Frankston from 10.00 and concluded at 3.00pm.

Participating teams included Frankston High and McClelland College Interact Clubs, the Rotary Clubs of Frankston, Peninsula 2.0 and Frankston Sunrise, the Peninsula Rotaract Club and Community Support Frankston. Frankston North and eClub Latitude38 Rotary Clubs were present to add support.  Teachers also join in the treadmill challenge.

The fundraising target was set for $10,000. Donations were posted on the Shout for Good website, and close to $9,000 was donated with more donations to come in following the event.

This year’s theme was colours so all the students paraded around in their colourful costumes with lots of the fellows wearing pink tutus. Even some of the Rotarians and family came dressed for the occasion. They danced, they sang, and everyone had fun.  What a great project and a great success.  One of the members of team McClelland raised the most funds as an individual.

On 6 Dec 2023 several members helped the newly formed McClelland Interact Club with a Bunnings BBQ to raise funds for the Safe Steps that was in addition to the funds raised by the Club to purchase play equipment for two sites. The Interact members worked wonderfully and needed little supervision form the club members.
