The Clinton Rotary Club is all about giving back to the community and the Apple n' Pork Festival helps them take that generosity even further.

Rotarian Tom Reddington says they will bring in around $10,000 and that goes back into the community through various projects.

Around half of the Rotary revenue is generated at the Apple n' Pork Festival. Reddington says if they didn't have the festival, they would have to do other fundraisers. He says the benefit is central Illinois and beyond comes to Clinton.

Reddington has a passion for the youth exchange program and has hosted ten international students and looks forward to hosting more. 

The Rotary Club meets Tuesdays at noon at the American Legion. Reddington encourages anyone in the community interested in joining to stop by one of their meetings and learn how you can join them in giving back to the community.
