Rotary Interact Club

Founded in 1997 and sponsored by the St. Clair County-West Rotary, the purpose of the ACHS Crusader Chapter of the Rotary Interact Club is to provide an opportunity for students to acquire leadership skills, improve local and larger communities through service projects and promote better relationships between all people through friendship and service. Interact is looking for HARD WORKERS. We are a service organization with alot to accomplish!
