LAST WEEK - Aug 12th, 2021 ... by Mary
Membership/Attendance: 49 Active members - 18 attending
Guests:  None
The Beginning:  President Terry led us in reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.  Jay told us about two community service projects:  (1) Helping with the Eastern Farmworker's back to school backpack project on Friday and Saturday (August 27-28) and (2) Helping with the Skaneateles Duck Dash on Saturday September 25.  Additional information provided below in this newsletter.
The Program: Skaneateles Rotary Foundation Annual Business Meeting was opened by CraigChuck O'Neil presented a brief history of the Foundation and explained the permanent endowment portion of the Foundation which was begun in 2013.  This portion of Foundation assets is held by the CNY Community Foundation and provides a vehicle by which an individual can leave a legacy to the community.  Members may consider this in estate planning. 
     Marv presented the financial report for the twelve month period ending June 30, 2021. 
     Alice then conducted the election of Foundation board members.  Two slots were open and Ed Evans and Craig Froelich were both elected to serve an additional three year term. 
Thanks to the Foundation Board for all of their work.
The Endings:  Robin let us know that the next two meeting (Aug 19 and 26)  will be at the Legion pavilion.  The meeting on the 26th will be a cookout hosted by the Legion.  Thanks to Bill B. Ed and Robin for organizing our in person meetings.
Four Way Test was led by Chuck O.
 
Upcoming Community Service .... by Jay
Volunteers Needed
Eastern Farm Workers Association
Back-to-School Project: 
     On Friday August 27th and Saturday August 28th the EFWA is sorting back-to-school supplies into backpacks to give to their member’s children. 
     We are looking for volunteers on the 27th for two shifts: 10 to noon and then noon to 2.  Then the morning of the 28th between 10 and noon.  
     They will be sorting and packing all day the 27th and packing and delivering into the afternoon of the 28th so if you are interested but the times I mentioned do not work you can still get involved. 
     The location for the event is First Unitarian Universalist Society 109 Warning Rd Syracuse, NY 13224.
     Please RSVP by contacting me (315-209-0753 or jstith@healthstrategyassoc.com). As this location is out of town please also mention if you are looking to carpool and if you would mind being a driver in addition to what shift you are free to work. 
Duck Dash: Saturday September 25th 
     On Saturday September 25th the Chamber of Commerce, YMCA, and other local non-profits are hosting Duck Dash between 2 and 4pm behind the CVS in the Village. The event consists of games for kids, food, drinks, and several duck races where people throw plastic ducks into the creek and see whose duck is fastest – it is geared toward kids, and younger families, and grandparents but anyone is welcome.
     Volunteer opportunities include set up/clean up, ticket sorting, and 3 to 5 people calling the race finishes from in the creek. 
     If you are interested please contact me so I can give the organizers a sense of how many people we will have to help (315-209-0753 or jstith@healthstrategyassoc.com).
