🌿 What a great afternoon of giving back! 🌸

Yesterday, our members had the opportunity to spend the afternoon at Ortenstone Gardens with Project 412, rolling up our sleeves, getting a little dirty, and making a difference together.

Our group helped clean up the gardens and created a new path that will make it easier for visitors to step in and capture the perfect photo among the beautiful blooms. It was the perfect day to be outside with plenty of sunshine and even better company!

Beyond the hands-on work, we loved learning more about Project 412, the incredible work they're doing in our community, and their exciting vision for the future of Ortenstone Gardens. It's inspiring to see how much passion and care is going into creating a space for everyone to enjoy.

If you haven't visited Ortenstone Gardens recently, now is the perfect time! Take a stroll through the gardens, check out the new sculpture installations, and experience this growing community gem for yourself.

A huge thank you to Project 412 for welcoming us and giving us the opportunity to be part of such a meaningful project. We love finding ways to connect, serve, and invest in our community together! 💚

Happy Earth Day!🌎

Our COMPASS Young Professionals were excited to soak up some sun and Spring Into Service today! ☀😎

We rolled up our sleeves and cleaned up the city park before sharing some laughs over ice cream at Hub 41. Our Spring Into Service Earth Day cleanup was the perfect mix of purpose and fun!

Thank you to everyone who was able to join us today. Special thank you to City of Detroit Lakes Parks & Rec for supplying us with vests and materials and thank you to Hub 41 for the delicious ice cream! If you haven’t checked out their new ice cream setup yet, today is the perfect day to stop by!🍦
