November is Foundation Month
No Meeting on Thanksgiving: Thursday, November 28Why Volunteer at Bulloch Gift Shop?It's FUN to volunteer at the Bulloch Hall Gift Shop! This picture shows just a few of our RRC members who staffed the register and bagged the gifts last year during Roswell ChristKindlMarket. From Past President Lou Tabickman: "Working at the Gift Shop was not only fun but
was a great opportunity to meet new people from all cultures and backgrounds within and outside the Roswell area. One day an elderly gentleman came in with
his grandchildren. He was visiting from Florida and upon signing the guest
book, he mentioned that this was his first visit to Bulloch Hall, and it
was very special. His name was Willis Ball, III. His grandfather was the
architect who designed Bulloch Hall, Barrington Hall, Mimosa Hall, and the
Roswell Presbyterian Church. You never know who you might meet!!" From Kathy Igou: "Shopping! I ended up buying so many stocking stuffers when I was working in the gift shop. Delighted my family and it made money for Bulloch Hall"! Sign up today!

Volunteer Here Mimosa Elementary School Interact at Work
The Mimosa Elementary Interact Club has completed its first service project! They collected 76 pairs of sneakers in 3 boxes around the school campus. Rotarian Sam Lane came to talk a bit about why this charity is so impactful and…. They have collected the most shoes so far! The 4th and 5th graders were so excited. Thank you to Dana Brockriede, Teacher Liaison, and Rotarians Gabriel Prado, Sam Lane, and Leslie Bassett for your mentorship and inspiration.

Please make sure to bring all items to the meeting on December 3rd as they are going to be brought directly to Giving Grace following the meeting.
