Dear Kent and Luke
Thank you for reading this week's Spinning Wheel. I found a Christmas themed nickname generator this time.
 
Yours in service (and authorship)

Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus
Last week, Santa and his helpers met at City Hall to plan how all the good boys and girls would be able to visit him this year. Thanks to the support of the City - Santa will be hosting his visits from Stage Left Cafe beginning December 4 and going until December 23. Obviously the 24th is a big carb loading day for Santa so he can't take visitors. The visits will be free, but ticketed and timed through the Opera House's system to manage the crowds. 
 
As a club we need to provide a couple of volunteers per shift/day to help with Santa and the crowds (the City will have a couple of their people too.) This is a great inside job. We will get a sign up out as we get closer but keep in mind that the shift you planned for Tag Days can now go to being inside and helping Santa. 
 
This Christmas will be one for Rankin Bass to sing about - 
 
 
 
An Early Christmas
It is that time of year - our Community Grant Program needs you! 
 
Keep your eye out for an email recruiting a few elves to read the applications and help make decisions on who was naughty and who was nice. Not really, all of the organizations that are serving our community are nice and worthy of our support and for some it will be an early Christmas! You can be a part of that joyful event. 
Rail Fest 
On October 10 and 11, the Square is hosting an event - Woodstock Rail Fest. And is looking for volunteers to help with crowd control. Consider it practice for working Stage Left for Santa in December.  Click on this link to see available time slots and sign up to help.  Our downtown businesses need us.
 
Rotary Learning Center
One of the goals in our breakout session, 10 days ago, was to get our members aware and check out the resource for the Rotary International Learning Center so we can all become more informed of Rotary. 
 
Learn everywhere and anytime with Rotary’s Learning Center. Take courses, find resources, connect with an online community, talk with other registrants and course moderators, customize your user profile, and track your progress. Sign in with your My Rotary account at learn.rotary.org/members/learn/catalog, or find the link on My Rotary under the Learning & Reference tab.  my.rotary.org/en/learning-reference
 
Many of the courses are just 5 minutes in length so take a few minutes to learn more about Rotary, you will be glad you did!
