Preparations are underway for the Rotary Christmas party!
Monday, December 19th our usual Rotary meeting will be replaced with a Christmas Party Extravaganza helping to send all of us into the holidays in the proper frame of mind! We hope you will be a part of our party this year by attending on that Monday but also sharing your generosity by donating a silent auction item, live auction item or some cash that can be used to buy items for the auction. If you can donate a prize please email Todd Benz at tbenz@limanews.com and feel free to bring that item to the Monday meeting and we will store it until it is unveiled to the group at the party that Monday. If you can donate a service that we need to make up a certificate for please go ahead and email tbenz@limanews.com as well. If you’re giving cash, please email tbenz@limanews.com with your business name and amount and go ahead and give it to Todd Benz no later than Monday December 12th and we will put it to good use to purchase items for the auction.
Please feel free to reach out to Todd Benz if you have any questions at 567-242-0371 or email at tbenz@limanews.com.

Do your part to celebrate Rotary Foundation Month.
Generous gifts to The Rotary Foundation help create lasting change in communities both nearby and around the world. In honor of Rotary Foundation Month in November, we’re asking club and district leaders to thank donors and reflect on the good that their donations make possible. Here are three ways you can celebrate Foundation Month:
Make a special gift to the Foundation on Giving Tuesday, 29 November. The top clubs in fundraising, participation, and online giving will be featured on My Rotary. Take a look at last year’s honorees.
Take time during a club meeting to show members how the Foundation transforms gifts into service projects that advance world understanding, goodwill, and peace by fighting disease, improving the quality of education, protecting the environment, alleviating poverty, and more. Invite a Foundation scholarship recipient or a community member who was involved in and benefited from a grant project to speak about its impact on their life.
