HCTA Foundation News for December
At
the December meeting, the Foundation will be raffling off a holiday wreath. The wreath will be on display at the November
and December meetings. It has been made especially for this event by Beth Jenny, formerly of Cattails Floral Designs. The
winner will be announced at the December meeting and will be able to take it home that day. The proceeds will be added to
the Foundation for use in the book grants.

Community
Service and Volunteer Hours The HCRTA had 33 members report 9431 hours of volunteer
time to the communities of Henry County already this year. At our last meeting, 2058 hours were reported. We have a goal of
11,000 hours of service this year and we are a little behind. If you volunteer please keep track of your hours and use one
of the convenient ways to report them. Remember there is a drawing each meeting by the member with the most hours reported
at that meeting. A different member will be drawn at each meeting. Remember, we report the total hours served to ORTA and
also use it in local news releases. So, please remember to report your community service and volunteer hours. Be of
service to your community!! Look for opportunities to volunteer. In this economy, community organizations really need your
help. It is a very satisfying way to fill the time as the cold weather begins to set in. A reminder, the hours we collect
are general volunteering hours and tutoring hours. Take advantage of one of those simple ways to add your hours to HCRT’s
total accumulation. Contact Tom Jenny at 419-592-7588 (leave a message) or email at cupmute@roadrunner.com
