Announcements and
Reminders
November is Rotary Foundation Month

Last year over 1,300 Global Grants were granted by The Rotary Foundation (TRF) and an additional 3,000 District Grants were funded, like our "Splasher Repurposing" in Bergfeld Park. TRF received over $395,000,000 to facilitate these projects and support our efforts to eradicate polio.
 
On Monday, Tom DeWitt will have a station set up for you to check your Paul Harris status, make donations or ask any questions you may have regarding how our participation individually or collectively works. 
 
Due to the generosity of some mature members of our Club, we are offering matching Paul Harris points for gifts made on Monday ONLY in excess of $99 on the basis of one point for every $1 contributed to either the Annual Fund or Polio Plus. You may participate with checks, cash or credit cards; talk with Tom at Monday's meeting and find out more!
