John Montgomery Memorial Citrus Drive!

This year we have named our  Annual Citrus Drive in memory of long-term Rotarian John Montgomery. He was an important Past President of our Club who had perfect attendance for club meetings during his entire tenure in Rotary (over 50 years)! The Rotary Annual Citrus Sale has raised over $1.3 million for grants to local charities! Check out the story below on our 2020 grant awards to see the benefits of this program.
 
We obtain fresh-picked seedless Navel Oranges and Ruby Red Grapefruit from the Indian River Groves in central Florida and bring them to you for the Holiday Season. These Grade A oranges and Grapefruit are a favorite for gifts to family, friends, employees, and business associates.
 
Donors can designate a gift of oranges to the Central Illinois Foodbank or a Food Pantry of your choice through this program.
 
Fruit can be ordered through a member of the Rotary Club of Springfield, or by phone or Internet:
 
Phone orders: 217-566-4326

The ordering deadline is November 9. Citrus Pick Up and Delivery Dates are December 4-6.
 
40 lb. cases of Oranges, Grapefruits or Mixed Fruit are $45 per case. 20 lb. cases are $30 per case. Gifts of oranges to the Central Illinois Foodbank or another Food Pantry of your choice may be made for either size.
