Help!! Get Those Auction Items In!
The heat is on... we need your auction items this week! On 2/18 we will begin setting up all of the online items. No more excuses, the clock is ticking; please mark your items with your name, what the item is, and donor information, and drop them off at the Molari office at 166 East Street.  Ron needs to get all items entered into the system and we need to take photographs for the auction.
Rotary Opens Doors Auction
Brooks and Alex let us know that the new theme of the auction will be “Rotary Opens Doors” That is this year's Rotary theme it will also keep us from being sued by Mr. Rogers estate - who is not being at all neighborly.
 
They are also putting out a plea for everyone to get any items they have to Molari’s in the next week. That will give Ron time to get them entered in the system and photographs taken for the website. We could really use additional items if at all possible. They request that we be as creative as possible!  Right now, they feel we have about $24,000 worth (at a stretch) and would really like to see an additional 18K raised 
 
The auction will take place starting online March 4th and will go on until March 20th. On March 20th we will have a live stream from Pittsfield community television at 7:00 PM. The committee will be sending out an email that you can forward to as many people as possible please also share on any social media!

Meeting Venue
Joan has sent out and email requesting a response on whether you would begin to attend meetings at Mazzeo’s in March.  We need to get an accurate account of how many would attend and then the board will make a decision on whether to proceed virtually or in-person
Volunteer Opportunity
We received this request from Caption Barter
 
Dear Community Members,
Since the COVID-19 pandemic we have been serving our food pantry and meal programs out the door. We are planning to move to sit down meals in our gym on March 1st 2021 to meet food insecurity and social needs of our patrons as long as the COVID-19 positive numbers remain low. We will need volunteers to help make this possible. We will need volunteers to help cook, serve and clean up the meals. We serve Brunch Monday through Friday 10:30A.M to 11:30A.M. and Sunday dinner from 4:30P.M to 5:30P.M. We looking forward to deepening our partnerships to serve the people of Pittsfield, MA
