ERC Highlights

This is a very busy Club! Here are some highlights of what has happened over the last week and what is yet to come!

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who made it out to our new meeting location at Superior last week! We had over 40 members in attendance. There are some learning curves and kinks we will be working out over the next few weeks. I appreciate your cooperative and helpful responses to our meeting and look forward to us feeling right at home soon. I hope to see a good turnout to the meeting this week. We have a special guest this week! District 7430, District Governor Len Gieseler will be our speaker. Let's give him a warm welcome and thank him for his service to Rotary.

On Sunday the Fellowship Committee put together a lovely Pumpkin Painting Party! We had a great turn out by Rotarians and Friends. Lots of happy smiles from the kiddos and grownups! There were a lot of creative ideas and artistic expression going on making it a great day for memories. Thank you to Jean, Don, Ceil, Diane, Nelly and the entire committee for organizing are special day and keeping this young tradition alive for ERC. I look forward to this event every year.

I'm excited to see what ERC puts together for the Miracle League Trick or Treat on Wednesday. Karen and her Committee are working with EHS Interact Club to create a fun experience for the Miracle League. It is so great to see that ERC and Interact are collaborating on meaningful service projects like this. Thank you to everyone who donated to make sure we have enough candy to supply the kids enjoying the event! You are all very sweet!

RICE RICE BABY! ANGEL NETWORK RICE COLLECTION! Please remember to bring boxed rice to any meeting now through November 17th. We can make a difference to struggling families one small donation at a time!

Board meeting this week! For anyone interested in attending our monthly Board Meeting, we will meet promptly after our normal program wraps up at 8:30am. Our DG Len will be in attendance.
