Our Holiday Luncheon was at the Hotel Bethlehem on 12/17 and we enjoyed a delicious meal, a bit of playful chaos with a Yankee Swap, and the joy of catching up with familiar faces. A few competitive gift-swappers kept things lively, and it was wonderful to see PDG Gerry Long!

 

 

It’s with deep sadness I share that Hank Barnett’s wife, Joanne Barnette, has passed away. We also mourn with our new member, Joan Pierce, who lost her husband, Robert Pierce, on November 2. Please keep them in your thoughts during this difficult time.  

 

We’re still looking for a host family for our exchange student for the second half of this school year. Nicolas Medina, from Bolivia, is a student at Liberty High School. If you know anyone who might be interested, please reach out to me.    

 

We have planned a New Member Orientation meeting for January 22 from 6:30 to 8:00 pm. This is a fantastic opportunity to welcome our new members, share important information about Rotary, and strengthen our community bonds.  You may bring your spouse or guest.  It's FREE, but please register under “Upcoming Events”.

 

Wishing you joy this holiday season!  See you in the new year.
