FOOD DRIVE for Food Bank of the Rockies
FOOD DRIVE IS NOW!!
Bring food and pantry items to the meetings on November 10th and 24th. With the cut in SNAP benefits, food banks are overwhelmed with the need for food. You can also make a check out to the Food Bank of the Rockies and give it to Clay Fell.
Ronald McDonald
Thank you to the Ronald MacDonald Volunteers!!
It was a fun night cooking for about 35 Ronald MacDonald residents thanks to volunteers: Craig and Bev Essex, Ted Michalakes, Linda Still (friend of Linda Forsythe), Lylah Forsythe (granddaughter), and her friend, Sophia, and led by menu planner and shopper, Linda Forsythe. The teenagers had a rewarding time making Halloween cupcakes.
Christmas Party and White Elephant on December 8th
Bring your spouses or significant others to our Christmas Party on Monday, December 8th along with a memorable white elephant gift. Afterwards, we will adjourn for more festivities and beverages at Dry Dock on East Hampden. Join us for both.
Coat Drive
Bring in slightly used coats, hats, scarves, and gloves on December 8th. As we did last year, we will collect cold weather items and Clay Fell will take them to the Denver Rescue Mission.
Salvation Army Bell Ringing
We will once again be participating in the holiday bellringing for Salvation Army. Clay Fell is heading this up, so if you would like to participate, contact him.
Christmas at Jewell Elementary
Once again, Smoky Hill Rotarians will be asked to buy gifts for 35 kids at Jewell Elementary who might otherwise not have a Merry Christmas. The school will be getting us names, gift preferences, ages and genders by November 26. Those names will then be made available to the club members to select and purchase gifts. Darryl Harvey is the contact person and he will be giving more information as to when the gifts need to be delivered to the school, etc.
