Remembering Paul Colvin
Our dear friend and long-time STR member, Paul Colvin, passed on December 3, 2024 as a result of pancreatic cancer. He was an active Southtowne member for many years. He delivered food boxes for the club up through October. For years he used to offer flights around the local area as an auction prize.
Kathi Hoffer to Serve as Assistant Governor
Past President Kathi Hoffer has been elected to serve as Assistant Governor for the five Eugene area Rotary clubs. Starting July 2025 she will serve in this capacity for Eugene, Eugene Delta, Eugene Emerald Valley, Eugene Metropolitan, and Eugene Southtowne Rotary clubs.
As Assistant Governor, Kathi will support, inform and strengthen the clubs, as well as serve as a liaison to the District Governor Line. She will meet regularly with the clubs, and with the 5 surrounding clubs with their AG, Gary Manly of Cottage Grove.
“District 5110 is lucky to have Kathi serve in this capacity,” District Governor-Elect Chris Waugh said, “and since I know her well, I was very happy that she agreed to take on this important role.”
Holiday Fun at Pilas!
Rotarians Linda Anderson, Felipe Alonso, Renee Yandel and Glen Brigham with family at the Pilas Program Holiday event!
We gave out Posada bags, books, and food boxes. Santa visited with each kiddo and Rotarians helped with a holiday craft too!
Sock it to Me!
SOCK IT TO ME was a long-time event that we did in November and December where we collected NEW Socks, Underwear and Undershirts for the homeless. This year we are donating these items to the residents at the EUGENE MISSION Life Change Program.
During the month of DECEMBER we will have a bin in our meeting room at the Mission where you can bring in your donations.
With Black Friday coming up, Fred Meyer’s has their annual HALF PRICE SOCK SALE. If you would like to participate in this fundraiser, it would warm the Hearts and Feet of the folks at the Eugene Mission.
Here is what we are asking for:
NEW Woman’s Size Large Sports Bras
NEW Men’s and Women’s Underwear
NEW Men’s and Women’s Winter Socks
NEW Men’s and Women’s Undershirts
