Events & Announcements
HOLIDAY MEALS
Our Rotary Club is working with J.C.E.O. and the Senior Citizens Council to provide holiday meals to needy families and senior citizens. This is the 18th year that our club has provided the fixings for a meal or provided a holiday meal gift card to area families. We are hoping to help more than 45 families this year.
If you are interested in adopting a family and providing a nourishing meal, please contact Ryan Lee at (518) 727-8582 or by email at rclee11@gmail.com.
Family names, addresses, etc. will be assigned in early December.
TOY DRIVE
Our Club will continue the tradition of asking members to purchase toys for the Christmas Bureau. Gift ideas will be available at our next Club meeting.
