Posted by Ingrid Brown, District Polio Chair on Dec. 29, 2023

Are YOU ready?? Time to get off your duff, put on those new exercise outfits and sneakers, and let’s all make some healthy New Year’s resolutions, AND raise some serious funds for the eradication of polio! You can choose your own date(s) so no excuse about scheduling!

How do you move: (@$25-$50 per hour?)

Clean your house; food shop; yoga or exercise class; ride a bike; ski (if you can find snow); Polar Plunge alone or with a group; join in one of the district events; use your imagination – anything goes!

How do you raise donations:

Ask family members; ask club members; ask co-workers; support yourself

Either set up a Raise For Rotary page or collect $$/checks and have your club send to Rotary End Polio.

Public Image Health Check

Posted by Tim Kelley on Dec. 28, 2023

Promote your Rotary’s Public Image. A strong and vibrant Public Image is one of 2 proven key tactics for successful and growing clubs -- the other is a large number of service projects. Effective Public Image helps expand your reach and artfully tell compelling stories that demonstrate Rotarians as people of action. The Public Image Committee’s role is to help clubs to have a robust media and social media strategy, an up-to-date website and an engaging online presence in their local communities.

We suggest all clubs engage on social media to boost your Public Image. Social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, etc.) provide streamlined opportunity to get your stories out there. The various platforms can provide a direct way to push your news to the public. Here are some tips to think about.

How can my club boost our Public Image?

Salem Celebrates Holidays with Foster Children

Posted by Adria Duijvesteijn on Dec. 27, 2023

The Salem Rotary Club recently hosted its annual Department of Children and Families Holiday party. This event supports children throughout the North Shore region and allows foster children the opportunity to celebrate the holidays with their foster families and often their siblings who are not able to be housed in the same foster home. Hosted at the beautiful Kernwood Country Club in Salem, this fun afternoon provided fun activities, a magician, stories with Elsa and Anna, good food, gifts, and a visit from Santa Claus himself.

"The Salem Rotary Club is proud to support DCF at this annual event,” said Club President Jen Close. “This event is something we look forward to every year, and Rotarians have just as much fun bringing joy to families in our community as the children who attend."
