Upcoming Club Meetings
Regular meetings of the Rotary Club of Three Creeks are held first and third Thursdays at 5:30 p.m., at Round Table Pizza in Salmon Creek (13009 NE Highway 99., Vancouver) unless otherwise noted below.

Upcoming Hands On Service Opportunities
We have not two but THREE service projects set for December. Check 'em out!
Event details:
SANTA'S POSSE TOY DRIVE
Date: Thursday, Dec. 2, 2021 (our regular club meeting)
Time: 5:30 p.m.
Location: Round Table Pizza, Salmon Creek
Please bring a new, unwrapped toy (not to exceed $20) to our club meeting on Thursday, Dec. 2. These toys will be collected and donated to Santa's Posse.
WALK & KNOCK INTERSERVICE FOOD DRIVE
Date: Saturday, Dec. 4, 2021
Time: Two shifts, 11:30 a.m.-3 p.m. window.
Location: Sunset Ridge Elementary/View Ridge Middle School (3215 S. Hillhurst Road, Ridgefield)
Sign up NOW: www.ridgefieldlions.org/volunteer_opportunities/?sheet_id=156
Drive and Drop will again be located in the south parking lot of Sunset Ridge/View Ridge Schools (near the covered play area).
As we did last year, instead of community members leaving a bag of food donations on their front porch for us to collect, people will bring their donations to us. We need general volunteers to help with the donation collection process and sign waivers/traffic directors to help drivers navigate to the proper entrance.
General volunteers are open to individuals who are in high school or older.
Similar to Santa's Posse project, please sign up on the link below directly and then send me an email so I know you are signed up. Also to note, there are two shifts, but I am encouraging us to sign up for the 11:30 a.m.-3 p.m. slots since that looks like the most need and I would like us to be together as a group. If the slots fill up, please email Tina you still plan to attend and just show up, they have a big donation from ilani that they will need extra hands.
SANTA'S POSSE GIFT PACKING
Date: Thursday, Dec. 16, 2021
Time: 5-9 p.m.
Location: Clark County Events Center, 17402 NE Delfel Road, Ridgefield, WA 98642
Sign Up NOW: https://santasposse.ivolunteer.com/toybagging
Santa's Posse is not doing a wrap night this year, but will need 200 people on Thursday Dec 16 to help fill bags with toys. We are doing the sign up a little differently for this project. Please sign up directly on their link and then send Tina a confirmation email that you are participating so she knows which Rotary members will be there that day (and so she can send you a reminder email as the time approaches). Otherwise she will not have a record of who signed up and/or is planning to attend.
I would encourage you to sign up ASAP as they are only wanting 200 volunteers and looks like that's down to about 80 as of November 3. It would be great to have a handful of Three Creekers there!
Call or text Service Projects Director Tina Vlachos with questions about any of these projects, 360-241-3721.
