Last week our club had committee meetings which allowed all committees working on various aspects of club involvement to catch up and continue progress on various areas of service. The response has been positive to having this opportunity as it is difficult to schedule additional time for committee meetings.
Among the topics covered were an update from the Fundraising Committee chaired by Chris Johnson. They have worked diligently to narrow options to 2 preferred opportunities for next spring as: 1) Harlem Globetrotters basketball game and 2) Magic Show. The basketball game is a program that many other Rotary clubs have used for raising funds and community awareness. We are currently seeking dates and venue; the next steps will be to form a local team to play the Globetrotters in an exhibition game. The Magic Show is an opportunity that will also draw families from the community and spread information on our work in the community. Specific details are still under review. If you are interested in participating in the planning for either of these projects, please contact Chris Johnson.
At the Board of Directors Meeting a partnership agreement with Four Seasons Markets was also approved for next year's Farmers Market. The last market for this season was October 21; more information as we move forward with Four Seasons will be provided. The partnership will allow the market to continue under our leadership, but bring their expertise and management to aid. .jpg)
