Join us for this two-part project as the community comes together for the lighting of our Christmas tree!

Hospitality Tent
We will host a hospitality space with food and drink for first responders in the plaza on Smokey Hollow where the parade route begins. Ken is the lead for this and just needs a few people from 3-6pm to help set up, serve and take down the space.
We'll be serving warm drinks like coffee, hot cider or cocoa, as well as some quick foods.
It's all free for the first responders participating in the parade!

Rotary Info Booth
Down in Baldwin Canal Square, where the tree lighting happens, we will have a booth where we can share information about Rotary, hand out candy canes to the kids and maybe even sell some fun glo items that families will enjoy for the evening's festivities.
Lizzy will be the lead on this side of town and just needs a couple more people who are great and talking about Rotary and not shy to mingle with the community to join her. Set up is at 3:30pm and we will stay until the crowd starts to clear after the tree lighting!

Click the volunteer button to the left to sign up for either of these two 
opportunities to assist and mingle with the community!

Many thanks to Ken for coming up with this project idea and bringing it to life!

Be a blessing to families in need this Christmas with Hope for the Holidays!
Hawk newspapers like an old newsboy to raise money for the United Way & Salvation Army Christmas Bureau, which provide toys, gifts and a holiday meals to thousands of families in CNY each year.

This job entails standing outside Dunkin for a 1-hour shift
offering a special edition of The Post-Standard in exchange for any donation to
people going through the drive thru or entering the business.

I know it sounds like sales, but it's an easy gig aside from being outside in the cold. Even if people decline, it's the holidays so everyone tends to be cheerful. If they aren't, just wish them a happy holiday anyway. You will love getting to say Merry Christmas to people from our community for the hour! Some will be generous and some won't roll down their window for you. It's okay either way!

Dress warmly and feel free to don a festive hat or decor.
Some people even bring a little speaker and play Christmas music on their phone!
Aprons for collecting cash and the special editions of the newspaper will be provided. 

Click the button to the left to sign up for a shift.
Pick one that needs a second person or sign up with a buddy
since it's much more fun to do with someone else!

This is a two-day project so feel free to sign up for a shift each day!

We're celebrating Christmas (and all the holidays) together as a club

A sign up sheet will be going around for the dish-to-pass list so we get a good mix of appetizers, side dishes, desserts, salads, etc. Please follow through on whichever type of dish you agree to make!
