In The Community
Carlson Building Services participates in the following community organizations:
What is Rotary?
Rotary is a unique organization that stresses “service above self.” It focuses on helping citizens in our community as well as addressing the world-wide challenges of disease, literacy, starvation and clean water.
Locally, we assist with STMA student education trips, participate in a national annual literacy project, donate and volunteer at the Hanover Food Shelf, sponsor scholarships, support the local American Cancer Society’s “Relay for Life,” provide hats and gloves to school-age children in need, and sponsor foreign exchange students. We also funded and constructed the community events sign at the St. Michael Parish School and funded defibrillators for the Crow River Senior Center and the Wright County Sheriff.
Globally, Rotary International contributes to the worldwide eradication of polio. We have contributed over $600 million and thousands of volunteer-hours, leading to the inoculation of over two billion of the world's children.
I-94 WEST CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
The I-94 West Chamber of Commerce was established in 1988 as the Rogers Area Chamber, in 1999 following the merger with the St. Michael Area Chamber the name was changed to reflect the larger area. In 2008 we merged with the Northwest Suburban Chamber of Commerce. With this merger, the Chamber believes it will have increased regional influence that will be important as business and residential development continues in the area.
The Chamber presently serves more than 600 businesses in the communities of Albertville, Corcoran, Dayton, Hamel, Hanover, Hassan, Medina, Otsego, Loretto, Rockford, Rogers and St. Michael.
