PROGRAM FEATURES............
November 30 – President Jay Luke had a Club Assembly today. He presented proposed ways to improve Stratford Rotary in areas of membership and attendance. He gave the statistics from the survey he sent out. I will be enclosing with the January billing a copy of suggestions and incentives to help us keep our club going in a positive way.

December 7 – The Holiday Social was in the evening. God attendance, great food, great speaker and a good time had by all. Thank you for the toys and your support of selling the raffle tickets. It looks like we brought in approximately $4,000 (don’t have all the money yet). After paying for the $1,500 gift certificate, that leaves us with $2,500 for our Clean Well Project. Perfect! Thanks to everyone who helped at the social in my absence.

December 14 – Dr. Susan Pauly, President Salem Academy and College, was our speaker today. She brought us greetings from Salem. She talked about the fascinating history of Salem and brought us up to date on the restorations and traditions that still exist today.
