Dear Rotarians,

Last week we heard from Chattanooga Police Department's Sgt Turk's department on the gang activity that is alive and well in the city of Chattanooga. I was surprised how many different groups there and was very appreciative of the officers and their work.

We also presented the Fraternal Order of Police with a check for $500 that will be used for the Santa Train with the Forgotten Child Fund. I appreciate the generous nature of our club and how we try to be involved in worthwhile projects like this. You can read more about the Santa Train at http://www.forgottenchildfund.org/santa-train.htm.

This week we are having Valerie Brown who is the principal at Bess T Shepherd Elementary speak. I am interested in learning more about Bess T Shepherd to see how we can partner with them. It is a school in our neighborhood that could benefit from our volunteer hours, our giving and our mentoring. I am eager for you to meet Ms. Brown, for all of us to learn more about this school and possibly the very special part we can play in the education of its of children.

Announcements:

Our monthly board meeting is next Wednesday following our club meeting. Not only will you learn more of the workings of our club, you will also receive a make-up for attendance.
Next Thursday (Dec 21), we will meet at Bethel Bible Village at 10am to fill boxes that the children will take home to their families on Christmas break.

The Rotary Club of Chattanooga Hamilton Place and the East Brainerd Kiwanis Club held their annual combined holiday meeting and hosted the Chattanooga Police Street Crimes Response Team as the featured speakers. The Crime Suppression Unit was started in 2007 by Chief Cooper and Mayor Littlefield as a response to gang related shootings/murders of 2006. The unit uses proactive techniques identifying areas and individuals which may be involved in gang activity. The Team presentation was extremely informative and enlightening, and our club expressed their sincere appreciation for the service of these individuals and our Chattanooga Police Department.

The Rotary Club of Chattanooga Hamilton Place and the East Brainerd Kiwanis Club made a combined donation of $500.00 to the Chattanooga Forgotten Child Fund. Accepting the donation was Sergeant Victor Miller from the Chattanooga Police Department's Fraternal Order of Police. The Forgotten Child Fund provides toys to underprivileged children or those who otherwise would not have presents at Christmas.
