Robert Jones and Barbara Bozon attended the November 7th meeting. The service club finished their Socktober drive and collected over 1,250 pairs of socks! The adult ones will go to Helping Hands and the kids socks will go to Foster Love Bell County. Thank you to all the club members who supported the sock drive.
Mrs. Cartwright from Foster Love Bell County gave a Power Point presentation on how their group helps foster children in various ways to include providing clothing. She was very appreciative of the sock donation. Next week the Service Club will assist with the school wide food drive. They will help sort and pack the donated food. All the kids received two brown lunch sacks that they will color various designs on, and then the sacks will go to Feed My Sheep for them to pack the lunches in.
The officers have designed a t-shirt and all the club members will have an opportunity to purchase one. If they cannot afford one, our club will scholarship the cost.
In order to receive a Service Club Award at the end of the school year, all the members will need to complete an independent service project and write it up so it can be shared with all the club members. They have to attend at least 5 of the 8 club meetings and they also have to maintain acceptable academic and citizenship grades.
They are going strong and represent Rotary well!
