Central Point Rotarians took 25 Central Point, Gold Hill and Sams Valley kids on a pre-Christmas Shopping Spree to purchase clothes, shoes, pajamas, socks, under ware and warm coats. Students with the most significant needs were selected by District 6 principals, then paired with a Rotarian to purchase much needed items. Partners in the shopping spree included RVTD (provided bus transportation from Jewett Elementary to Medford and back), JC Penney (provided haircuts and styles, discount coupons and stockings with gifts for each child, and doughnuts and juice to fuel the shopping), Red Robin (provided a kids' meal for each child) and the Central Point Rotary (provided $150 for each child to make purchases and some amazing entertainment from the Balloon Man). Central Point Rotarians, student volunteers from Crater and a number of helpful principals used their shopping savvy and the incredible discounts at JC Penney nearly double their purchasing power. Kids got to choose their favorite warm coats, pick out boots or shoes, or find the perfect party dress. Candy Manary, who organizes the shopping spree every November, reported that some shoppers got nearly $400 worth of merchandise for their $150 investment. "Thank you for the sweater," one student wrote in a thank you note, "I wear it every day." |

Welcome to the Central Point Rotary
|
The Central Point Rotary is proudly honoring international “Talk Like a Pirate Day” on Wednesday, September 19th. This meeting is all of the fun of the typical Central Point Rotary, but with salty talk, grog and costumes. To those of you who are familiar with our Rotary Club, “salty talk” and “costume” may not seem atypical. And, you may have even questioned whether or not certain members had already been into the “grog.”
