Last week John Kugler gave the invocation. John Kugler and Dan Lassek served as Greeters. Butch Ethington was Cashier and Deirdre Milobar was Sgt. at Arms. We had several announcements and presentations and a vocational talk from John Kugler as well. Joe Finnegan recognized Sybil Olson for her donations to our Foundation to support RYLA students. Lori Benton talked to us about the plans for the RYLA camp this year. Josephine Parker, who attended RYLA last year, talked to us about her experiences there and future plans. 
We need volunteers for two upcoming projects:
On Wednesday, October 16th we will be assembling care packages for homeless families transitioning to housing with help from Heartland Family Services. 3-5pm at Slate Architecture. Sign up by going to the calendar portion of our website and clicking on the event.
On Saturday, October 19th, we are partnering with Habitat for Humanity and Suburban Rotary for Rock the Block.
You must sign up by clicking HERE so that you can complete the waiver, etc.
This event is all about bringing communities together and promoting healthy neighborhoods! Months before the event, our staff meets and surveys the existing neighbors in the areas we serve. With your help, we will assist these residents with a variety of tasks, which usually include light repair, clean-up, sanding, painting, staining, and a lot of landscaping. At the end of the day, the neighborhood shines a little brighter, and new relationships are formed.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided, as well as water to drink. Volunteer check-in and breakfast starts at 7:30 AM. We will kickoff at 8:00 AM with a brief introduction to Habitat and the Rock the Block program. Then the music will start pumping and the work begins! When it is all finished, we celebrate the day’s success and show our gratitude by sitting down together for lunch.
Location- TBA- there are 2 shifts 8-11 and 11-2
We need 1 more volunteer to represent our club at the District Business meeting on 10/17 via webinar at 7pm. Attendance credit will be given. Let Jennifer know if you can do this.
We are a service organization with projects that support education and building understanding locally, nationally and globally.
