Chair of the Day: Jared Bakewell 

Invocator: Karen Rolf

Greeter: Volunteer needed 

 

This week we are going to break up attendees into smaller groups prior to the meeting for socialization using Zoom Rooms.  If you are willing to lead conversation for a small group of 5-6 people, please let Jennifer know. You would need to be on at 11:45.  

With covid cases rising in Omaha, we know some folks are trying not to go out as much.  If you need help with grocery pick-up (or other errands), please reach out to Jennifer. We have Rotarians who are willing to help with this.   All will be confidential.   

As we all know restaurants and restaurant workers have been especially hard-hit by the pandemic.   Even though we are not meeting in-person right now, we still want to provide those hard-working folks with their year-end gifts from us. 

 

Please consider donating the cost of a lunch (or more!) toward this effort.     Also, please consider ordering take- out or purchasing gift cards to help Anthony's through this tough time.  

Thanks to all our bell ringers from last weekend. Go to Facebook to check out our photos. We still need lots of volunteers for 12/5. 

 Sign up with your friends/family or fellow Rotarians. Go to the CALENDAR section of our website and select the date and link and sign up.

 

 

 

So far the December pot is at $1300!  You win half if your name is drawn and you land on the star. The entire wheel is filled with prizes including Rotary tumblers, gift cards, etc. 

 

  RISK stands for (Rotarians Investing in Special Kids) and has always been our drawing at weekly meetings.  Half the proceeds go to the Foundation to support our programs and the other half to the winner.  

 

This year it will have a twist to allow those on Zoom and in the room to play and win.

 

Rules:

 

1.) You must be signed up and paid before the 1st Thursday meeting of the month (11/4 for November)  Pay online at suburbanrotary.org CLICK HERE. 

2.) There will be one spot for half the pot and the others will be covered in a variety of prizes including gift cards and free lunches.

3.) One winner of half the pot per month.  If half the pot is not won in any given month, the RISK pot will continue to grow until it is won. 

4.) Once the pot is won, we will give away the smaller prizes until the contest begins again in the next month.  

 

Have fun and help us do some FUNdraising for our great Suburban Rotary Programs.  

 

 

 

We won't have Yearlings in December, join us January 4th for our next meeting. 

The Suburban Rotary Board of Directors made a decision to suspend hybrid meetings through the end of 2020 due to community spread of covid.  We will look to resume them in January if the situation improves. The Board will consider this decision at their 12/21 Board meeting.   We hope to see you online every week!

Consider making your annual donation to the Rotary Foundation of Rotary International.  This money comes back to us in three years in the form of Global and District grants to spend on our projects.   Your donation goes around the world to promote literacy, fight disease, and encourage peace.   Every Rotarian Every Year asks that you consider a gift of at least $100 to the Rotary Foundation. 

 

If you have never given, Suburban Rotary will match your first $100 to the Foundation giving you $200 toward your Paul Harris Fellowship (cumulative giving of $1000).     Rotary Foundation Committee Chair, Jared Bakewell, asked us last week to "Rise To the Occasion" during this difficult year to support people in need around the world.
