It is that special giving/evening-out time of the year for us Rotarians. So, I will get right to the point. We really must get behind, in a big way, our annual fundraiser. Christian, Lauren and the Gala Team have done a great deal of heavy lifting already but this is still an event in motion-under construction.
It is now “our turn” to do our part. Step One, if you haven’t already, go to your calendar or smart phone and lock in the evening of February 11. Step Two: despite Lauren’s deadline statement, it’s not to late to sponsor, make a cash and/or special auction item donations. Step Three: buy a ticket or two or, even better, a table. Step Four: Dress up in your fun-loving Gala duds (that make you smile) and be there or be square. It will, I am sure, be a great bidding-night all around.
We have a “great cause” this year with Kim Lemman and the St. Francis kids’ “playground project.” What a worthy undertaking. Join me and all your Salem Rotary brothers, sisters and friends; lets make this Gala a truly all-around “wild and crazy” fund raising night.
