At their weekly meeting, Byesville Rotary members discussed
their busy holiday schedule which includes plans for several fund raisers and
their annual Christmas food basket project.
Work has begun to meet the needs of
their Christmas Food Basket project. The club expects to provide food baskets
for about 200 families totaling about 800 children and living in the Rolling
Hills School District. Each family will receive one box of perishables
including a turkey and one box of non-perishables and canned goods. Sign-ups
for the Christmas baskets will be held in October. Baskets will be distributed
on Saturday, December 19.
To help raise money for their Christmas food basket
project, club members will hold a fund raiser on Saturday, October 17, from
8:00 am—1:00 pm at the intersection of Main and 2nd streets in
Byesville. Watch for Rotarians holding Christmas stockings.
The club will be partnering with the Meadow Brook
Interact Club and the Rolling Hills Schools to collect canned goods and other
non-perishables for the Christmas food baskets.
In November, the club will hold a rummage sale. Funds
from this project will be used to support the club’s 2015 literacy project.
Club members will celebrate Christmas early at their November
24 meeting. Each club member is asked to bring gifts for kids to this meeting.
The gifts will be divided between the Meadow Brook Interact club in support of
their Angel Tree pro and the Secret Santa program
On Saturday, December 12, club members will hold their
annual Breakfast with Santa pancake breakfast. Santa will be at the breakfast
and free pictures with Santa will be provided with the purchase of a breakfast.
