Warren County, Northern Shenandoah Valley & More | Trash Collection
While the photos do not do justice (see more on Facebook) for the 19 full bags of trash, five tires and a lot scrap metal was picked up recently, along the 1.2 mile section of Kendrick Lane. Michael is so proud of the Rotary Club of Warren County, The Rotary Club of the Northern Shenandoah Valley, Interact students from John Handley High School, Gabe Tweedie from Skyline High School and Christian Henry from the Early Act Club at E. Wilson Morrison Elementary School for coming out today on a beautiful Saturday morning and doing so much good for our community.

Rotary Friendship Exchange | Let's go to Brazil!
Let’s Go to Brazil!
We are thrilled to relaunch the Rotary Friendship Exchange (RFE) program with a brand-new adventure—and you’re invited! District 7570 is headed to Brazil’s District 4640 (the beautiful western region of Paraná), and we’d love for YOU to be part of this unforgettable journey.
When’s This Happening?
- Outbound to Brazil – March 2026
- Inbound from Brazil – September 2026
What’s It All About?
You’ll be welcomed into the homes of warm, generous Rotarians in Brazil—sharing meals, stories, laughter, and life. It’s the most magical part of any RFE! You’ll return home with lifelong friends and unforgettable memories… and then, you’ll get the joy of hosting them here in District 7570 when they visit us in the fall of 2026!
Who Can Join?
All District 7570 Rotarians, spouses, and family members are welcome to apply. The outbound team is capped at 12 awesome adventurers—so don’t wait! If selected, you’ll also commit to helping host and support the inbound team in September 2026.

Where Are We Going?Destinations within District 4640 are being finalized now, but one thing’s for sure: Iguazu Falls is on our radar! This jaw-dropping natural wonder—taller than Niagara and twice as wide—is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a must-see.
How Will It Work?
Expect at least 10 days of guided fun and cultural immersion, with a flexible, go-with-the-flow mindset required. You can even add on personal travel in South America before or after the official exchange.
What’s the Cost?
- Round-trip airfare to Brazil: Currently running about $1,100 from most airports in our district to São Paulo
- In-country travel: Affordable (domestic flights/trains)
- Total estimate: Around $2,000 per person, depending on your choices and spending style
Who’s Leading the Way?
- Burt & Donna Duren – D7570 RFE Committee Chair and seasoned RFE travelers
- Odilete Herget & Dalzira Silveira – Our amazing contacts and leaders from Brazil’s District 4640
- Download the Outbound Application Form
- Send it to Burt Duren at [email protected]
- Spots are first-come, first-served—so don’t wait!
Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime—Rotary-style!
