The Holiday Letter
It’s December!
Some families send out their annual Seasons Greeting cards with a letter detailing the significant events and occasions that their family experienced in the past year. I thought that I would use this column to give a Seasons Greetings and Holiday Letter from our Rotary Club.
Financially supporting community organizations is certainly a highlight of 2023. We recently donated to ALMAS, YMCA and Town Square TV. Additionally we gave donations to the Two Rivers Student Council sponsored Harvest Pack event and the Two Rivers staff & volunteers recognition event.
Supporting these community organizations was made possible through work and fundraising efforts. Thanks to Robert Gullick for marshalling the Beer and Wine Raffle and to all for selling tickets. Many club members participated in the Prior Lakefest event in July. Kudos to the Prior Lake Rotary Club for the gargantuan effort in holding this two day music festival.
Speaking of work,’ -our Club and related volunteers prepared and served meals with Loaves and Fishes this past year. The increasing demand for these meals has required some ingenuity in filling the containers efficiently. I believe that we have mastered the new process.
As co-president, and I think I can speak for Don McCall, we are blessed with members that “step up” to the plate in getting things done.
We have had excellent speakers and presentations throughout the year because you seek out and schedule these fascinating and committed people that exude passion for their worthy causes.
For some newer members, the motto of our club is “Having Fun While Making a Difference”,
I endorse that and propose “Having Fun While Making a Difference” as our 2024 mission.
