We are on the final push for Vive le Vin- our current sold boxes sits at 375- sell out is 550.
We can sell after Saturday however the goal is to have as many sold as possible as we can then move on to the point of this fundraiser- putting money back to the community.
I would ask:
1) Have you reached out to anyone who has attended the gala prior to purchase?
2) Have you purchased your box as a Rotarian if you are able?
3) Have you shared with personal and professional contacts about the value and chance to win additional prizes- but in addition the proceeds being donated back?
4) Have you shared on your own social media feeds?
5) Do you have any novel ways we could promote the last push? - if so please let me know!
Volunteering Saturday:
We are looking for a few volunteers to aid in the pick up.
If you are able to come out for a portion of the scheduled 11-3 pm pick up,
please confirm your attendance with Julie @ (705)691-3990
At last week’s meeting, representatives from the Salvation Army provided an overview of their Christmas Kettle Campaign.
The campaign which kicked off last week, is the Salvation Army’s biggest fundraiser.
Each year the campaign relies on hundreds of volunteers, including Sunrisers, who donate their time and energy to collect donations at each of the kettle locations.
The funds are used to support critical programs and family services such as summer camps for children, food bank, and Christmas Hamper programs to name a few.
We’re excited to gather again in-person so we can connect, share ideas, and strengthen our relationships in an atmosphere of friendship and learning. The 2022 Rotary International Convention in Houston, Texas, USA, offers us that opportunity – and we remain optimistic that we’ll be there together 4-8 June 2022.
The deadline to register at the reduced rate is fast approaching. You have until 15 December 2021, so sign up and pay today to take advantage of significant savings. You’ll have the chance to cancel for a full refund until 30 April 2022, minus a $50 per person administration fee.
The Rotary convention provides opportunities to expand your network, share best practices, and stay informed. Plus, you won’t want to miss the Houston Host Organization Committee’s lineup of ticketed events, like the Discovery Green Welcome Event at a 12-acre park steps from the convention center.
Don’t delay your convention registration and the prospect of meeting up with old and new friends. Perhaps you can even encourage a friend to join you so they, too, can be inspired with the family of Rotary.
Each session start at 0900 a.m. and ends at 1100 a.m.
$20.00 per participant
The number of registrants will be limited to 30.
