Here are some reminders and a little update on our plans for
service for this year.
January:
We are collecting formal prom attire for Cottonwood High
students. Please bring anything appropriate to our next Business Meeting
(February 5th) and Frank will make sure it gets to the school.
February:
We are organizing the Sunnyvale Winter Games together
with the Rock Rotary Club on Saturday afternoon, February 21st. Our club is
responsible for food and drinks for the kids. More information and time to
follow as we get closer. Let's hope for some more snow!
March:
On Thursday March 19th at 6-7:30 PM we are taking about
10-15 kids from Sunnyvale Neighborhood Center to the Utah Food Bank for a
service project. We need to have at least 3-4 volunteers to accompany the kids.
More details on transportation and time to meet will follow.
Family Mentoring:
Judy and I have met with the Promise Office in South
Salt Lake to discuss possibilities for a more sustainable and meaningful
service plan for our club. Our ongoing projects with Sunnyvale will still
continue, but lately it has been difficult to get projects scheduled on a
regular basis.
Rachel Sanders, the Family Liaison Manager at the
Promise Office, has offered to come to our meeting next week (February 5th) to
talk about their family mentoring program. If this is something that
interests our club we have been promised that they can find ongoing volunteer
opportunities for our members. The program could be designed to suit the
different kinds of involvement our members have and Rachel Sanders would
provide training for us.
Please plan to attend our business meeting next week as it
is important for as many as possible of our members to hear this
presentation.
Looking forward to seeing you next week,
Margareta
Local Service Chair, Millcreek Rotary Club
