Dear Fellow Madison West Towne-Middleton Rotarians;

With the arrival of September, our thoughts turn to the beginning of another school year, UW home Football games, the turning of the leaves, and of course, our WT-M 3^rdAnnual Oktoberfest Fundraising activity. 

While it will certainly be important for all of us to be involved the days of the event, we would ask each of you who are business owners to consider a sponsorship for the event; or, we would ask that you invite your employer to serve as a sponsor for our great event.  What a wonderful opportunity to promote our businesses and our commitment to and engagement in our Rotary membership.

Additionally, if you know of a business in the West Madison and/or Middleton area that you think would be interested in supporting our valuable and worthy causes, please invite them to join us a sponsor.

This year, for the first time, we are also offering a $100 Signature Sponsor opportunity.  This is a great way for us to make a personal commitment to our Club’s great fundraising event.  To date, the Recknor Family, the Brazeau Family and the Growney-Selene-Hart Families have self-identified as “Signature Sponsors”.

See the relevant information linked below for your review and please consider a sponsorship at any level for the event.  I would be happy to meet with you and discuss this further or answer any questions you might have.  If you are willing, or know of a business that is willing, please let me know as soon as you get a commitment.

Thank you for your consideration and for allowing me to make this ask.  I will look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.

Best Regards,

On Wednesday, August 31, the Jefferson Adopt-a-Partner Committee (Deb Dieter, Roxanne Brazeau, Dean Ryerson, Matt Loch and Mary Beth Growney-Selene) returned to Jefferson Middle School with the Chromebooks and cart that our Club had previously donated to them. Over the summer, the Chromebooks and cart were outfitted with our Club's name. The committee was greeted by Colleen Stilson, ITC, Instructional Technology at Jefferson Middle School.

Celebrate the launch of Lussier Community Education Center's radio station,WWMV-LP 95.5FM on Saturday, September 24th, 4--7PM, at the Lussier Community Education Center! There will be live music, great food, sweet swag and more! ALL ARE WELCOME!  Lussier is located at 55 S. Gammon Rd, Madison, next to Jefferson Middle School. RSVP to Richard Jones richard@lcecmadison.org, or call 833-4979.

WWMV-LP's on-air broadcasts will reach outward 10 miles in all directions, though if the radio waves reach Lake Mendota, they've got a clear shot all the way to campus across the water! And most of WWMV-LP's programs will also be posted online at wwmvlp.org, so anyone can listen anytime from anywhere.
