ORNAMENT SALES COMMITTEE
 
Posters are ready! Please contact Jody or Corn to arrange for pickup.
 
 The new ornaments are ready to sell!  This year the ornament has the well known PAFB "Santa on the Plane".  The picture and coloring are very well done.  Anyone with connections to Plattsburgh will want one of these ornaments!  Contact Corn Forrence or Jody Maloy to order.  They also have past ornaments, for those trying to fill their sets.  You can purchase them at both Dannemora Federal Credit Union locations, UFirst Credit Union, and the Senior Citizens Council.
 

CHANGES TO ROTARY DUES

The Rotary Dues Statements will be going out  November 1st and will be due December 1st.  This change will enable Carmen Carpentier and Anne Cutaiar to make the necessary changes, to our membership roster, before we receive the District Billing Statement. Please advise Carmen or Anne, if you will not be continuing your Rotary membership for any reason.  Memberships will be removed from the roster on December 15th, if dues are not up to date.
