Our October 10th meeting was an exciting one as we hosted Hoffman Estates Mayor Bill McLeod, who joined us to draw the winners of this year’s Rotary Vacation Drawing!

As tradition dictates, the Mayor reached into the golden drum three times — each time pulling out a numbered cube representing one of the lucky winners. The winning names were revealed following lunch and fining, keeping the suspense alive throughout the meeting.

And the winners are:

• 🥇 1st Place – Cube #896: Natalie Nissen (Ticket sold by Mike E.)

• 🥈 2nd Place – Cube #884: Jack Lucas (Ticket sold by Jack L.)

• 🥉 3rd Place – Cube #1889: Mike Marach (Ticket sold by Randy G.)

Congratulations to our winners, and thank you to everyone who purchased and sold tickets to support the Rotary Club of Schaumburg-Hoffman Estates Foundation’s ongoing community initiatives!
