It's that time of year again.

We are planning on ringing the bell again this year for the Salvation Army.  This has been a popular event for our Club, so we have 2 dates committed this year.  The two dates are: Saturday Nov. 23 and Saturday Dec. 7.  On both dates we will ring from 11:00 am - 5:00 pm in 1 hour shifts of 2 Rotarians or friends of Rotary each shift.

The location is the Cub Foods on Buerkle (1920 Buerkle Road).  You may sign up online using the following link WBL Rotary Annual Bell Ringing, please note that there are two tabs in the spreadsheet to sign up, one for each date.  There will also be a clipboard sign up going around during the next 2 Rotary meetings.

If you are having trouble signing up online, call me and I will sign you up.

Each time we have done this in the past our bucket raises about $500.00, we thought this year, let's double that amount. Also, you are encouraged to wear holiday gear to help get people in the spirit.  Post your Bell Ringing pictures too!

Thanks for your support.
