Facilitator: Joanne Lamoureux The Thought for the Day —
Cal Walker included a Pro Tip with his Thought: having an eye exam, and dilating the pupils makes it hard to read the Thought for the Day. Nevertheless, Cal persisted, and read “Desiderata” by Max Ehrmann. “Go placidly amid the noise and haste...” Read the full text of Desiderata online. It was the first meeting of December and birthdays and Club anniversaries were announced, followed by singing led by Loralyn Light.
- Richard Kops announced the successful completion of Share the Warmth. Statistics to follow. Thanks to all who stepped up to volunteer with the program!
- Loralyn showed a Washington Nationals Championship Jacket that was donated to the Share the Warmth program. It’s new, with tags still on, and is being made available to the highest donor!
- Nancy Potter presented information about the programs that will be supported by the Dozen Dinner Draw.
- Heidi reported on the Thanksgiving Harvest, which served 8 families totaling 35 individuals. The children were also given books.

Gertrude Noden presented for the UNIFAT primary school in Uganda that is supported by the Club. The program provides essential digital literacy skills for quality education. The Ithaca Rotary Club has provided support for this program along with the District and Rotary International through a global grant. Several students and teachers shared their appreciation for the solar power array that gives them consistent electricity, as well as the ability to learn on computers, which gives them access to the world, and skills for technology workplaces.
