In September, Rotarian Nelson Shaffer decided to transfer his membership to the Toledo Rotary. Be sure to wish him well and thank you for his many years of service!! Service Opportunity You’ve heard Les Domini, Chair of our Community Service Avenue of Service, and President Chet has talked about this volunteer opportunity. Perrysburg Rotarians are partnering with the Wood County Committee on Aging to deliver home-cooked meals to seniors in Perrysburg who are homebound. (If you are thinking “meals on wheels,” you are correct, except this program is through the Wood County Committee on Aging.) No cooking required! All you need to do is stop by the Perrysburg Senior Center at 11:15am on the fourth Thursday of the month and pick up the prepared meals, drive to your 10-14 designated homes, knock on the door, and hand the meal (with a smile) to the homebound senior!
