Pre-School Reading Program -  Every second and fourth Tuesday of the month members and volunteers go to local pre-schools to read to the students and pass out a book to each child.  It is hoped that the children will take the books home and read to their parents, grandparents, siblings, etc.  Or they will be read to by their parents, grandparents, siblings, etc. until they can comprehend the works on the book pages.

Books for this program are provided by www.seashell.com .  At least once a month our club gathers to select, sticker and clean books. The books are categorized for the appropriate age, quality, and so forth.  The books are then placed in boxes and ready for the next reading date.

Family Fun Fishing -  This program is co-sponsored by SweetBay Supermarket and Pinellas County Parks and Recreation.  Fishing Event days are planned 4 times a year from 8:30am to 11am either at Walsingham Park or Taylor Park.  To date we have had over 1100 children participate in this event.  This event provides an opportunity for parents, grandparents/guardians to interact with their children and broaden family communication and bonding.  In addition, the children learn a lifelong leisure activity.

Special Olympics – Each December our club provides lunches for Special Olympians participating in Regional competitions.

Serving the Homeless – The fourth Tuesday of the month we travel to St. Vincent DePaul to serve dinner to those less fortunate.  Oakhurst United Methodist Church provides the food and is greatly received by the participants.

Mentoring/Tutoring – Our Club provides financial support to the Bridging the Gap mentoring/tutor program sponsored by James Freazell.  Disadvantaged youth are given special mentoring and/or tutoring support to help them on the road to graduation.
