NOV. 19 MEETING: Foundation & committee updates

Zoom in to Rotary on Nov. 19. It's Foundation month, and our own Sara Butruff will talk about the Rotary Foundation, after which our committee chairs will provide an update on their activities.

HOLIDAY HAPPENINGS

If it's the holidays, and it's Rotary, you know there's stuff going on!

Service project opportunities
- In lieu of our traditional senior holiday luncheon, we will assemble and deliver about 125 gift bags to our senior citizens.
  - Do you have something to donate? Drop that off with Wendy at Premier Bank downtown. Deadline is Dec. 2.
  - The committee will meet after Dec. 4 to assemble and deliver the bags. Email Wendy if you can help.
- Wendy purchased and delivered gift cards from Farmington Rotary for 360 Communities Armful of Love program. Thank you, Wendy!
Changes to meeting dates:
- Farmington Rotary will not meet on Nov. 26, Dec. 24 & 31. Enjoy the holidays with your family!
- The December board meeting date is changed to Wed., Dec. 16 from 12-1:30 p.m. on Zoom

TELL YOUR ROTARY STORY

Farmington Rotary is important. But why? Why are YOU a member of this club? Barb suggested that some regular Facebook and website posts from each of us about our "Rotary why" is a great way to promote the club, engage current members and bring in new members. Watch for an email from her about how to submit your "why." No technology skills necessary!
