Good morning! 
 
I want to thank the following Rotarians who helped with the LCAC Christmas Food Distribution this past weekend.  On Friday evening – Larry Faulhaber, Dave Breudigam and Chuck Drumm; and on Saturday morning – Jim Rowe, Patty Boesken, Marty Harris, Bob Calsin, Dave Clements, Jean Vahue, Chuck Drumm, Bill Gaydos, Bill Minnich, and Ken Haber.  Also, students from our Interact Club at Lakewood High School along with Monica Fujiwara were there Saturday morning as well as students from our new Interact Club at Lutheran West with their advisor Steve Fuchs.
 
At the December 21st meeting, Charles Eversole will be attending and leading us in singing Christmas carols.  We will be holding our annual gift book exchange and hopefully, Santa may make an appearance.  Also, we will have as our guest speaker, Lauren Kreuger, talk about the importance of shopping locally. 
 
Reminders:
 
No meeting on Wednesday, December 28th.
 
The cluster lunch with Youth Challenge will be February 4, 2017 from 11a.m. -1 p.m. at the Youth Challenge facility.  At this time, we will present Mary Sue Anter with the check from our cluster as well as a Life Time Achievement Award. 
 
Merry Christmas!
 
President Ken
