Community Commitment: Food Drive at RCC
Introduction:
At Reedsburg Country Club, our commitment to our community goes beyond our beautiful golf course and event spaces. In November and December 2023, we had two events, “Trunk or Treat” and “Jingle Mingle,” to help our local food pantry.
We collected many non-perishable items from our guests and members, filling one car for the local Food Pantry. In this blog post, we want to share this heartwarming story and express our gratitude to everyone who made it happen.
Event 1: Trunk or Treat Event:
Our “Trunk or Treat” event, held during Halloween, was a spooky success. Families from the Reedsburg community joined us for an afternoon of fun and giving.
We encouraged participants to bring non-perishable food items to fill our collection bins. Their hearts matched the creativity in the trunk decorations and costumes with their generosity. Goblins and ghouls came together to ensure that less fortunate families in our community would have enough to eat.
Event 2: Jingle Mingle – A Holiday Gathering:
We hosted a festive and heartwarming “Jingle n Mingle” event as the holiday season approached. This event brought people together to have fun at RCC and support our donation collection efforts.
We asked our guests and members to bring non-perishable food items as a goodwill gesture. As laughter and conversations flowed, so did the donations into our collection bins.
The Incredible Support of Our Community:
We continued our efforts to raise more donations by asking our guests and members to continue to fill our bins throughout the rest of 2023. We were in awe of the support from our members, guests, and the local Reedsburg community during both events. Their kind hearts filled our bins and made our trip to the local Food Pantry complete.

Looking Ahead to Our Centennial Year:
We commit to being essential to the Reedsburg community for our 100th anniversary in 2024. Acts of kindness like the “Trunk or Treat” and “Jingle Mingle” events are at the core of what Reedsburg Country Club stands for. We are excited to continue these events in our 100th year and beyond. We aim to ensure our community remains strong and lively for another 100 years.
Conclusion:
At Reedsburg Country Club, being a part of the community means giving back. But our members, guests, and the Reedsburg community deserve credit for attributing this success to their compassion and kindness.
We are grateful to everyone who helped make these projects successful. We are excited for more community involvement and support in the future.
Together, we can all make a difference right here in our community!
