FRON RICK'S WEEKLY REPORT:

Oh.  My.  Goodness.  

Brian, Gary and Andy (Northbrook) and Ron (Glenview Sunrise) were the first to drop off today and saw the empty floor.  Ray (Deerfield) and Elke (Northbrook) were the last to drop off and saw the massive pile of coats collected so far this week. 

This rivals the Illuminate Northbrook week in volume – and we have more coats coming on Saturday!!    We are at 1329 coming into this week.   Passing 1500 will be a breeze.  We have a fighting chance at reach 1664 – which would be DOUBLE the official tally from last year.  1664 – 1329 = 335.  It is possible!

Bottomline for all four Rotary clubs (and Satellite and Interact, if practical):   Please make sure your club is represented. 

It’s not just the sorting and boxing, it’s the clean up and preparation for the barrel collection on Monday morning and final deliveries on Monday afternoon.   Slated for coats this week (in the sequence they will be dropped off): 

WINGS (Elk Grove),

World Relief (Carol Stream),

World Relief (Chicago),

Ethiopian Community Association (Chicago), Chi Welcome (Evanston).  

Thanks for helping us close strong!!!  Rick
