SHARING COATS FOR CHRISTMAS .... by Pres Mary
"Thanksgiving is behind us and Christmas is approaching. Our Club dinner at the Sherwood is December 14th, details and menu to be announced. Let's share our good fortune with others by bringing a new or gently used adult coat (men's or women's) to the dinner. Coats will be given to the Skaneateles Outreach the very next day to be given out on Saturday December 16th with the food baskets. The needs are:
5-7 adult small for women
5-7 adult small for men
40-45 assorted Med, Large, XL and 2XL for men
45-50 assorted sizes for women (slightly more for women because of single moms)
If you're out shopping this weekend it's a perfect time to take advantage of a sale!
Thank you Jim McQuiggan, Community Service Chair for arranging this community service project!"

ANNUAL CHRISTMAS FUNDRAISER – Dec. 7th ... by Cheryl Silvestrini
The Skaneateles Rotary Club’s Annual Christmas Fundraiser will be held on Thursday, December 7th, at the Skaneateles Country Club. We will begin with a Happy Hour at 6 p.m., followed by a traditional family-style turkey dinner at 7 p.m. Tickets are $30 and can purchased in tables of 8 and 10. You may contact Amy Tormey for tickets. Pre-paying for tickets with either cash or a check is highly recommended. Checks to be payable to the "Skaneateles Rotary Foundation"
Please encourage Rotarians, family, friends, co-workers, etc., to not only buy a ticket to the event, but to ATTEND the event. The money from the donations of attendees is what we rely on to make this event successful. Also, we need the support of all Rotarians in coming up with raffle prizes. The goal is to have at least 50% of those who attend win a prize.
While local merchants and professionals will be canvassed again this year for prize donations, all Rotarians are also asked to donate prizes. The committee encourages Rotarians to buy prizes worth at least $30 and to purchase from local merchants. This year – on a trial basis – the committee has decided to forego purchasing prizes from Best Buy. Therefore, it is of utmost importance that all Rotarians contribute a prize for the raffle. Also, consider donating a prize from your business or the company you work for. Please let Roy MacDonald or Dave Piper know in advance of the event what you will be bringing in the way of a prize. Even if you can’t attend the event, please contribute a raffle prize.
And finally, if you’d like to be involved in organizing this year’s event, please see Cheryl Silvestrini or Marv Langley.
