Good Evening!
 
Meeting this Wednesday!  
The Center, 4157 Hudson Drive, Stow, 7:45a.m.
Come Early for Breakfast 7:15 a.m. $15.00
 
Thank you.
 
Please remember to bring in your check or contribution for The Rotary Foundation pledge for 2025.  Dave and Maria would like to be able to see that everyone has a chance to participate this year.  Your contributions really do make a difference around the world.  Thank you.
 
Please send all social media items to Annie.  She is doing a great job keeping our Facebook page updated. Please send any pictures of projects or events to her so that we can get people excited about our club.  Speaking of social, every month with a 5th Wednesday, we replace our morning meeting with a social gathering in the evening. 
 
A friendly reminder to all new members with blue sheets, our board meeting is the second Friday of every month.  Our next meeting is Friday November 14, 2025 at City Hall at 7:15 am.  All members are welcome. 
 
Service before self starts with you doing service, let's get out there and make a difference!!
 
Thank you!!

The Rotary Foundation

Please contribute to The Rotary Foundation during October and November.  Contributions would work best if they are made before the end of November.  Dave and Maria work diligently to ensure that the items are processed and complete before year end.  Once again, there are 6 main categories or funds that you can designate for your donation.  They are:

  1. Annual Fund-SHARE
  2. PolioPlus Fund
  3. Disaster Response Fund
  4. Endowment-SHARE
  5. Miles to End Polio
  6. World Fund

You can check the MyRotary.org page for further information about each fund.

EREY - Every Rotarian, Every Year Club can be achieved when the Club giving reaches $100 per capita or more and all dues-paying members give $25 in a year.  I believe that our Club should try to attain the status and get everyone to dig down and participate.  We can find the level of per capita that our Club is at and push to meet this goal.  Let's meet this challenge in 2025.

 
Special Notes for Members 
  1.  The Special Note this week is that we need host families to help with the Rotary Youth Exchange program.
  2. The phrase of the week is “Paul Harris Fellow”.  Please be ready to respond at the correct time during the meeting.
