Dear friends,

 

As we grow, new members will be joining our ranks and we need seasoned members to help get them settled and keep them involved.  Please consider volunteering to mentor a new Rotarian and build one-to-one relationships with other members of our club.  You could meet outside of Rotary if that would help, or just check in through email.  As we develop a mentor program, we welcome your ideas for how to fold new members in to active service.   If you are interested, please talk with Mike Ferber.

 

With joy on the journey,

 

EK-S Rotary Board of Directors

Thanks to all who have brought soup for the drive to benefit The Open Door Food Pantry!  In week one, EK-S Rotary donated 43 pounds of soup, and in week two, combined donations from both Eagan Rotary clubs brought in more than 50 additional pounds of soup.  We have TWO more meetings to complete the drive.  Challenge yourself and your network to flex their SOUPER muscles and bring more soup.

 

There is a special this week at Hy-Vee with tomato and chicken noodle soup for 29 CENTS per can!

 

Coming Soon!  Keep your eyes open!  Starting in January, Eagan Kick-Start Rotary will be helping The Open Door gear up for the big game!  It will be simple, it will be easy, an it will impact so many people!  

 

Your SOUPER mission, should you choose to accept:

 

1.  You can put out a box with a SOUPER flyer at your work place (yes, the flyer will be wonderful and artsy....as soon as I make it)

 

2.  You can bring the box and its SOUPER contents to Rotary meeting weekly and load it into a car for transport.

 

3.  You can take your box back to the work place for more SOUPER refills.

 

4.  You can sign-up to bag groceries at a participating CUB foods to support this SOUPER organization: The Open Door.

 

5.  You can sign-up SOUPER friends and network of SOUPER groups outside of SOUPER Kick-Start Rotary to help get this done for the SOUPER needy in our own SOUPER community.

 

More details to come!  Be ready!
