Byesville Rotary members have a busy holiday schedule which starts
Saturday, October 8, with their first fundraiser for the club’s annual
Christmas food basket program. Club members will be standing in the Main and 2nd
street intersection asking community members to help Stuff Santa’s Stocking.
Watch for Rotarians holding Christmas stockings.
Monies raised will be used to help provide food baskets for
150 to 200 families living in the Rolling Hills School District. The club
estimates that they will be providing food for about 600—800 people. Each
family will receive one box of perishables including a turkey and one box of
non-perishables and canned goods. The club will be holding sign-ups for the
Christmas baskets in October. Baskets will be distributed on Saturday, December
18.
At the club’s December 6 meeting, club members will
celebrate Christmas early. Each club member is asked to bring gifts for kids to
this meeting. The gifts will be donated to the Meadow Brook Interact club in
support of their Angel Tree project and to the Secret Santa program.
The club will also host a Breakfast with Santa on
Saturday, December 10. Pancakes, eggs and sausage are on the menu. Santa will
be at the breakfast and free pictures with Santa will be provided with the
purchase of a breakfast.
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.
