Jason Karcher began with the upcoming annual treasured event of the “CookieAuction.” The board believes we will remain virtually for meetings but want to be creative and make the event still occur. Jason asked for you to email (jkarcher@mac.com) or text him (585.450.9660) with what you plan to auction off with a photo, by December 11th. It was discussed we could still invite guests to the auction, as “Friends of Rotary.” The auction will take place virtually on December 16th. There will be more details coming in the next couple of weeks. S h a n n o n a K a r c h e r announced that community members have signed up for the Holiday Decorating Contest.
