This week is our annual Christmas program featuring our long time friend Willie Kitchens (formerly of The Impressions). If you haven't heard Willie sing before don't miss the meeting because his Christmas music is awesome! Bring a little extra cash too-he may have cd's on hand. Also our annual Christmas party for The Chambliss Children's Center is Wednesday night starting at 6:00 at Pin Strikes Bowling Center off Lee Highway. It's $15 per Rotarian which includes bowling, pizza and drinks. Santa will also be there handing out the gifts our club bought for the kids. Always a lot of fun (especially watching some Rotarians attempt to bowl!). See you this week!
This message came from Tom Kale, Assistant District Governor....The Chattanooga Rotary Club will have a speaker from the Centers for Disease Control giving an update on Polio at their meeting this week. This will be a very interesting talk and everyone should consider going. If you ARE planning on attending the downtown club’s meeting on Thursday, you need to let Erin know ASAP so she can have an accurate count for seating and food!! e.kelly@chattanoogarotary.com
