Bell Ringing 2020
Photos of volunteers ringing the bell in front of King Soopers to raise money for the Salvation Army to "Do the most good." This is a fun way for club members and friends to help the community we live in. Take my word for it, everyone is smiling under the masks! Thank you to all the volunteers, and the donors that made a difference in the community we are proud to be a part of.
Hoping that 2021 is a big improvement and that all your families are safe and health.
Thank you Rotary Club of Aurora for all you do. Happy New Year!
As a club we collected a Grand total of $35,629.00 this year!
Special thanks to the members that hosted a Virtual Kettle: Bob Barrows, Patti Bateman, Chuck Cluster, Doug Evans, Phil Gibson, Rick Richards. They not only contributed personally, but also encouraged others to donate by their example. Thank you to the Rangeview High School Interact Club and the National Honor Society for their help with the Kettles as well, and to Linda Witulski for coordinating Interact. We could not do this without the hard work of Sam LeMar, and the Salvation Army Team that puts the money to work for the benefit of the community.
For more ways to help please reach out to Sam LeMar: sam.lemar@usw.salvationarmy.
THANK YOU!!!!!!
We thank Arapahoe County Deputy Sheriff Amanda Cruz, for her presentation today on Zoom.

State of the City Update
AURORA STATE OF THE CITY EVENT POSTPONED TO
May 2021, exact date TBD
As you are aware, given the widespread health concerns and related governmental mandates of the past several months, the Rotary Club of Aurora Executive Board determined that the best course of action was to postpone the State of the City event until fall. As the situation with COVID continues to be fluid and regularly changing, the Board has decided that the most responsible action at this time is to postpone until 2021, with the tentative plan to implement in May, per usual.The intention is for the 2021 State of the City event to be exactly the same in-person networking experience as traditionally planned. We will share information as appropriate with all interested parties, (attendees, participants, and sponsors) while working to plan this special, annual event. Separate communication will be sent to sponsors.Thank you so very much for your continued support!Please feel free to contact Patti Bateman, event chair, with any additional questions you may have at this time: pbateman_1@comcast.net
