Community Development
Our Community Development program is the driving forces behind the chapter. The chapter conducts many projects to help keep the Windsor area vital, including the Shad Derby Parade/Festival, Sheila Scmidt Fishing Tournament, Charity Christmas Tree Sales, and much more.
Each year we donate thousands of dollars to local organizations, give college scholarships to local students, and provide no-cost events for hundreds of local citizens, including the elderly, teens, the disabled and the disadvantaged.
We always welcome our members' new ideas!
