We owe such a big thank you to our Gala Committee, who work hard all year to ensure we have a successful Gala.  Thank you to Carolyn (committee chair), Sharon, Stephanie and Brian for organizing the event and sponsorships.  Special thanks also to Bryan and to Village Studio for the portraits they took for everyone who attended.   This being our main and perhaps only fundraiser of the year, it is so important that it is successful so that our Club can continue to do its great service in our community.  We had a wonderful event on Sat. Feb. 23rd, and are pleased that we will be able to support McNally House this year.

This coming Tuesday, prepare for a mid-day relaxation exercise with Jo-Anne D'Amico.  Last Tuesday we heard about some very real local needs for shelter in our town, with an update from Bruce Wallace of th Grimsby Affordable Housing Partnership. 

March 2nd is your chance to meet or see Rotary International President Tanaka!  Please see the "Downloads" area and speak to Jim Van Roon if you are interested.

Our next Board meeting is Mon March 4 at 6 pm.

On Tuesday March 5, at our noon meeting, our club will be discussing member ideas and plans for spring and for next year.  We hope to run a Paul Harris event as well as social activities and great weekly programs. Please think of events you might like to invite your associates to so that we can introduce them to the benefits of being a Rotarian. Also please consider volunteering or making a nomination for a Board position for the next Rotary year, so that you can have an impact in the projects and activities and directions of our Club.

Our March Pod has lined up a month of great @Noon Programs!  The Pod responsible for April programs includes:  Carolyn, Brian G, Bryan M, Sharon, Stephanie, and Jim W.

Peace through Service
