SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES

Ringing Rotarians! 

Help us help the Salvation Army with their Kettle Campaign!  This is the 5th Wednesday of November!  Show your support for our community by joining us to ring a bell, share compassion and greet shoppers!  There are two locations: Hy-Vee on San Marnan and Walmart (2 doors) on San Marnan.  We'll spread out and jingle away, then meet up after for more fun networking and libations (Dad's Pub or location TBD)! Sign up here!

Gift Donations for Caroling Bus

Please review the gifts  on the Sign Up Genius form that Mary sent out and mark any and all gifts you're willing to shop for!  Please deliver the gifts to either Mary at Coloff Media (721 Shirley St., Cedar Falls) or to Candy at Home Instead Senior Care (1844 W Ridgeway Ave, Waterloo - Across from United Medical Park) by November 30th.  You can also bring them to the Bell Ringing event on the 30th.  Thank you for your Service Above Self

Santa for a Senior Caroling Bus

Sign up here and join us for the most fun and meaningful service project for our club!  Bring your beverage of choice, snacks to share (optional), dress "Christmassy," and be prepared to sing!  You'll make the holiday season a little brighter for select area senior shut-ins.  Due to the presence of alcohol, having children on the bus is discouraged; however, feel free to drive your car and follow the bus if desired!  If you are able, a $20 donation per person toward the bus and tip is appreciated.  Don't miss the service project everyone will be talking about!

If you're able to join us, please be there by 11:45 a.m.  The bus will leave at noon on December 3rd!

Time: 11:45am - 4:00pm CST

Location: Parking Lot Across from Viking Pump, on 4th St, Downtown Cedar Falls
