There is no meeting this week as the Executive is taking time to focus on future club direction and initiative in preparation for our club strategic planning session!

I would like to offer my sincere gratitude and heartfelt thank you to each of you for your support in making our very first casino a HUGE success! 
 
Our time and talents are the greatest gifts we can offer. Each of you took the time out of your very busy schedules to support the RC of Edmonton Whyte Avenue and the work we do in our communities to offer a hand up and create the change we need to see in our world. 
 
I would like to acknowledge the following for going above and beyond: 
 
Kelly Sysak, our casino chair, for her tireless efforts in making sure all was done! 
Marilyn Mucha for her support in recruiting volunteers
The U of A Rotaract Club for stepping up and supporting this casino
For our fellow Rotarians from different clubs, thank you for supporting us! We look forward to returning the favour when the time comes! 
Family and friends of our club - thank you! 
To our club members, thank you for once again stepping up! 
 
To District Governor John and Donna, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to support our club! We are most grateful! 
 
Jeff and his advisory team, thank you for working through the challenges we faced with our last minute cancellations and filling the roles so we could be successful. Your knowledge and willingness to make it all come together is most appreciated! 
We look forward to working with you in the future. 
 
And to those who stepped up at the last minute to cover shifts that were last minute cancellations, I am so grateful. If we do not fill our volunteer shifts, roles and responsibilities, this puts our licence and future casino opportunities in jeopardy. For those willing to go that extra mile, thank you. 
 
The funds we receive from this casino will be an opportunity for our club to IMAGINE our future! What impact we will have moving forward. 
 
Thank you everyone. We look forward to working together with our Rotary community, family and friends as we make a difference each and every day. 
 
Be well and safe. 
 
Tamara

Online fundraising initiatives
Thank you to all who donated to our summer auction. Due to some challenges out of control, the Set for Summer auction was delayed. 
 
After discussion, consideration of our timeline and the work required to make our online fundraising efforts a success, the committee decided to combine this online auction with our Holiday Spirit Auction in November so we can focus our efforts on our casino as well as expand and create a bigger and better event coming up. 
 
We would be most grateful to those who generously donated items to hang on to them and we can include in our Holiday Spirit Auction. The item donated will make great Christmas gift for loved ones. 
 
AND, we are now starting to collect items for our Holiday Spirit Auction so watch for details. Thank you in advance for your support of this important fundraiser for our club.
