The Commack-Kings Park Rotary Club unveiled another Peace Pole. Peace Poles are a symbolic representation of our shared aspirations for a harmonious world. These monuments, inscribed with the universal message "May Peace Prevail on Earth" in different languages, serve as a constant reminder of our collective commitment to foster unity and understanding within our diverse community. They are not just static structures, but rather catalysts that inspire action-oriented conversations about peace, tolerance, and coexistence.

In our quest to make a difference, we organized a food drive. We understand that food insecurity is a real-world issue that many face daily. We are thankful for everyone that donated non-perishable items and volunteered their time to help us sort and distribute the collected goods. This was a great project for the Commack-Kings Park Rotary Club and the Hills West Interact Club. This is more than just an act of charity—it's an opportunity to take clear, action-oriented steps towards alleviating hunger in our community. Remember, every can, every box, every donation makes a difference. Together, we can turn empathy into action.
The Commack-Kings Park Rotary Club gave out approximately 670 dictionaries to the students in the Commack School District and Kings Park School District.
Providing dictionaries to 3rd-grade students is a purpose-driven initiative that carries profound educational implications. It fosters linguistic proficiency, expands vocabulary, and nurtures curiosity—essential ingredients for effective communication and cognitive development. By gifting dictionaries, we are not just providing a learning resource; we are empowering our students with the key to unlock their potential, one word at a time. This consistent, action-oriented strategy underscores our commitment to enhancing education and shaping well-rounded, inquisitive learners who are equipped to thrive in a rapidly evolving world.
After several years of fund-raising and planning, the Commack-Kings Park Rotary Club’s Erosion Abatement project at the Kings Park Bluffs is finally coming to fruition.

We have set up a community sharing table in Kings Park. The table will be open 24/7 for anyone in the community. Thank you to everyone that has donated so far. Today we dropped off a ton of food including fresh fruits and vegetables and bread. At this time we are taking non-expired food donations. Please check the expiration dates on the food before you bring them to the table. It is located at the park on Main Street near the Kings Park Train Station. Share if you can spare, receive if you are in need.
