Rotary

Great to see such a large group this morning! Here is a recap of the meeting in case you missed it:

1. Operation Warm Coats is THIS Saturday December 12 at Maywood Elem in Bothell! There are various shifts available for volunteers, please reach out to Sandy if you can help. skallio@microsoft.com/408-396-9537. She or I will send out a final email with info/times after the committee meeting this evening.
2. Holiday Food/Toy Drive is Next Saturday, Dec 19 from 12-3 at Sumerian Brewing. We need 6-7 more volunteers over both 11:45-1:30 and 1:30-3:15 (including delivery to families).
3. We will have a visit from Santa at our Dec 15 zoom meeting! We will be doing a gift exchange (limit $20). You must bring a wrapped gift to my house to drop off, where you will take a wrapped gift to open on Dec 15th. Address is 6020 NE 203rd St, Kenmore 98028. If you cannot come to me, I will gladly come drop and pick up a gift for you!
4. Our speaker was Toby Nixon from the Washington Coalition for Open Government. He informed us about citizen rights to access public records, and how to access parts of our government.
5. Happy dollars included Erv and Keith for a little holiday cheer for the kiddos (visit from Santa’s best Elf, Mr. DeSmet), and from Brittany and Pat for the overwhelming response of community love for the Maltby Cafe!
