I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving and will have a Merry Christmas. Please note that the last day for early registration for the International Convention and reduced rates is December 15th. And, please review your progress on the Citation and see that accomplished goals have been reported to RI. I am down to my last three Club visits and looking forward to the new year. Thank you for all the service you performed this year and your planning for the new years. Jim Finstrom

The Rotary Club of Longview continued its years old tradition of assisting with the Longview Thanksgiving Food Drive this November. 
Past President James Roberts who serves on the board of the Food Drive organizes the club’s participation each year which includes a sizable cash donation that helps provide turkeys and hens along with the nonperishable items. For several years the club has moved its regular Tuesday noon meeting the week of Thanksgiving to the Food Drive location at Maude Cobb Convention Center where the Rotarians help sort food donations, check in donation recipients and help them gather and load their food boxes.
Texarkana International Rotary Club meets on Monday night. During one of their regular scheduled meetings, they packed 13 boxes for Operation Christmas Child as their November International Service Project. They had so much fun packing the boxes. The boxes will soon be on their way to the distribution center to bless 13 children in counties all over the world.
Texarkana Sunrise Rotary Club and Habitat For Humanity of Texarkana partnered to refurbish a Nash Resident's home. 
PDG Bill Hedges helping Operation Christmas Child in Quitman. Over 3,000 boxes from the East Texas area were sent abroad.
The members of the Clarksville Rotary Club contribute annually to The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International. A portion of funds contributed by Rotary clubs are returned by The Rotary Foundation to the Rotary International District to which the local club is assigned. Rotary Clubs are then entitled to apply for a matching club project grant from their District Grant Committee to assist with a local or international project. The local club matches the amount of the grant requested in the application.
