Meeting Cancellation Reminder Heavy hors d'oeuvres, wine, beer and soft drinks will be provided by the club. Cost for Members and Guests is $8.00 per person. Persons with reservations not attending will be billed. Please RSVP to Michael Keeney via e-mail at michaelskeeney@gmail.com Upcoming Election Typically, while elections are open to anyone, we have traditionally asked members to serve first as board members, and then move up through the ranks as officers. We will also be asking members to volunteer for committee assignments, to the extent you want to work on specific projects rather than committing to a busier position on the Board. The PETS Box number is 3603 and information on our box can be found online at shelterbox.org. I have attached a before and after photo from the area where our box was deployed.
In addition, there are several clubs in our District that are purchasing Shelter Boxes. At this point it looks as if our District Shelter Box initiative will be around 10 this year. Our District is truly making a difference in our local and world community. Exchange Students Marie Beaver, Executive Director of the Rae of Hope House provided club members with an update on the organization's progress over the last year. She also reviewed the upcoming expansion plans for the fellowship home. Additionally, she thanked the club for our continued financial support and looks forward to working with us in the future. Remember – NO MEETING WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27TH. INSTEAD – ROTARY ANNIVERSARY PARTY HOME OF BOB CHILTON AND JANE CLINE – TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 26TH FROM 5:30-7PM. To join the Charleston Vandalia Rotary Club please fill out the online membership application or forward it to a friend. Hope to see you Wednesday morning. |

Congratulations! Your contribution for a Shelter Box, along with other presidents-elect in our District (7550) and the northern District (7530) at PETS in Flatwoods last March is making a difference to people that are in desperate need in Pakistan following a devastating Cyclone (Yemyin).
Our district is disbursing $4,000 for 4 Shelter Boxes from contributions made during our District Conference at The Greenbrier in November. I will send you the box numbers upon receipt so you can locate them when they are used.
