YOU are making a difference. Our Rotary Club is showing the community the positivity, giving spirit, and dedication towards making a difference during challenging times, that it needs right now.

For example, our blood drive and our bike trail cleanup were both very well attended and a huge success. We are working with the Sherman Rotarians when possible to spread the word about Rotary in the most convincing way- through our actions.

YOU are donating to the 125 Club at unprecedented levels, with thirty-eight 125 Club donors, and we are just in the second quarter of the Rotary year. If you see a video on Facebook that profiles our 125 Club donors, please share it. Some of our videos have raised donations towards the cause. Many don’t know people still suffer from Polio, or Rotary’s efforts to eradicate it, so sharing our videos helps.
We have a food drive on Saturday, Nov. 14, from 9-11 a.m. This is an opportunity to help as a worker, or by dropping off food! Becky Schaade, Club Service Chair, is organizing a fabulous project for December. We will still also be donating gifts to the students of Forest Rose School, but not in person due to the virus. The Club will support The Salvation Army again this year by ringing the bell outside of the Lancaster Walmart. Please see Donna Stalter's directions below on how to sign up.

Our work towards making Fairfield County Job and Family Services a Heartsafe Organization is beginning, and I am optimistic that we will accomplish this goal, and the objective of this year’s District Grant. Please let me know if you are interested in helping with the medical emergency drills, or would like to donate towards the effort.

Opportunities to shine brightly during dark times abound. Rotary Opens Opportunities!

Keep up the great Rotary work!

Stay safe,

Matt Wideman
President, 2020/2021
