Meeting Recap 11/15/17
 
The Rotary Club of Palmdale conducted their weekly meeting at Sizzler’s Restaurant in Palmdale on 15 November 2017.  The meeting was called to order by President Sam Garcia at 6:35 PM.  Members in attendance were: Sharon Freeman, David Maddock, Chuck Church, Janice Garcia, Holly Liebenow and Sam Garcia.  Everyone enjoyed dinner.  The formal meeting began at 7:00.
 
The first item of business was to discuss the upcoming Children’s Shopping Spree at Walmart.  Sharon Freeman confirmed that she had made calls to all coordinators to confirm that their shoppers were in place.  We are planning on 10 students from Keppel School District, 5 students from Valerie Lensing, 5 Students from Elsa Pina, and 4 Students from Holly Liebenow.  Sam Garcia indicated that he would try to have Santa available for the Shopping Spree.
 
The next item of business was to discuss the upcoming Rotary Club Christmas Party on December 13, 2017.  The party will be Gino’s Italian Restaurant in Palmdale.  We will be selecting our meals from a special menu that Gino’s will provide.  An invitation list including the District Governor (and anyone she would like to bring) was generated and invitations will be sent out along with the special menu from Gino’s.  Our Interact Club and Joy McCall will be invited as well.  We will be doing the usual gift exchange ($20 wrapped gift) with only two Take-Aways allowed.  The party will be from 6 to 9 PM with time allotted for Raghada to meet with the Club at 5:30 if needed.
 
Chuck will get the menu from Gino’s for the party and send it to Sam and Sharon so that it can be included in the email Invitations.  Chuck is continuing to work with our Tee Shirt vendor to get the Interact Club shirts completed.
