Upcoming Things to Consider: November 1st - Milja Leinonen's Exchange Presentation Come hear our exchange student Milja present her exchange talk. Learn more about her, where she originates and what she is hoping to achieve on her exchange in Canada! November 8th - Come hear the "Wayne and Wayne" show as they teach us the importance of the Rotary Foundation, how to donate, where that money goes and how you can decide! November 15th - Keri Card-Esau: Come hear an update on the Therapeutic Art Program and the 'Take it or Leave it' Mini Library at Paul 1st Nation School. Learn about the impacts these programs have had and how our Connecting with Our Indigenous Neighbors Committee has been supporting these programs for the last two years. November 22nd - Silly Santa Auction, after the meeting if you can stay and wrap/prepare the gifts for Wings of Providence, that would be awesome. Many hands make light work and it usually only takes 30 mins or so. November 23d - Karaoke Night at Dianne Brown's house December 20th - Annual Christmas Party at Porta Romana. More info to come. This year we have elected to support an initiative that provides backpacks for those in need. This would include our local homeless citizens and also people who may be in crisis. We are partnering with Alberta Health Services at the Stony Hospital, with the local RCMP (they will have a few backpacks in their patrol cars) and potentially first responders. These backpacks will contain essentials like toothbrush, toothpaste, sanitary items for females, mitts, touque, socks, and a thermal undershirt, among other items. The backpacks will also have the Rotary Wheel Symbol on them. Tickets now available from Catherine! |
