Did you rate last week's Rotary meeting as electrical? You had to be there to understand.
 
THIS WEEK At ROTARY
 
This week's meeting is for anyone who enjoys music and is interested in learning more about it. Ben Van Vliet, the Executive Director of the Upper Valley Music Center, will be telling us how we can learn more. As always, noon Wednesday at Jesse's.
 
THE AUCTION GALA
 
The Auction Gala is Hanover Rotary's most important fundraiser and it's imperative the all Hanover Rotarians help make it a success. This year our partner is the Special Need Support Center. With everyone's help recruiting sponsors, finding valuable auction items and attracting people to attend, our goal is to raise more than $150,000 to support our partner and the more than 30 Upper Valley charities we usually are able to fund.
 
The Auction Gala is on November 17. At the website, you can make donations, become a sponsor, buy tickets and find other information.
 
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW
 
Hanover Rotary has a track record of being a major force for building quality of life in our community. It's fun! Get in on the action. Here are some opportunities for you to help:
  • Bruce Atwood is organizing the Auction/Gala coming up in November. Contact Bruce and ask how you can help!
