Courtesy Request to All Members

If you know you will not be attending the next meeting,

please contact Linda D. or Jessica before Friday a.m. if possible.

This way we can let Louise know for her menu planning

and purchases so that there is a minimum waste of food.

________________________

Reminder to All members...

Be sure to talk to family and friends about Rotary

and invite them to a breakfast meeting.

A $100 fund has been provided for 5 guests to attend 2 breakfasts each.

Please let the welcome table know when you bring a prospective member

so the asst. treasurer can keep track of the fund.

A special volunteer opportunity!
SPUR Student Success
to help students start the school year equipped with what they need!
Visit spurnorthshore.org for more information.

When we hosted our special speaker from SPUR, there was great interest

in working with them and supporting their good work.

Here's a chance to do precisely that!

There are four ways you can partner with SPUR to provide backpacks this year:

1. Sponsor a Backpack. Make a tax-deductible gift and ensure a local student

has everything he or she needs to feel prepared on the first day of school.

2. Donate. Make a financial contribution to cover the costs of any unsponsored

backpacks and defray the costs affiliated with Spur's Student Success Drive.

3. Volunteer to Fill Backpacks. Sign-ups begin on Monday, July 24 to fill

hundreds of new backpacks between August 1 and August 18.

4. Spread the Word. Share Spur's posts on Facebook and Instagram.

And, when you report for service at the SPUR Anderson St. headquarters,

please be sure to indicate you are a RCoMH volunteer.
