Kemptville Live
Another successful year of the Kemptville Live Music Festival has passed. Five days of music and fun were enjoyed by thousands on the Kemptville Campus.
 
 
The winner of this year's Rotary Club 50/50 draw was Amanda Lalonde with winning ticket number 3820. Thanks to everyone for your support of our community initiatives.
Rotary Year End
The last couple of weeks have been busy ones for our club. Pictured below, Rotarian Vic presented our Rotary bursaries to deserving students at North Grenville District HS and TR Leger. Unfortunately, we don't have a shot of the grad from St. Michael's.
 
 
 
Subsequent to that, the club held its annual pot luck Officer changeover dinner and social gathering at Rotarian Nancy's. The evening concluded with Past President Nancy placing the president's pin on incoming President Nadia.
 
 
The finale for the year had Rotarians John and Cora from our club attending a reception for incoming Rotary International President Jennifer Jones. It is worth noting that Jennifer is the first female president of  Rotary International and is Canadian. Pictured below are Rotarians John and Cora with President Jennifer and Past District Governor Faye.
 
Agrilands Presentation
Our club hosted an evening with the mayor, who explained the municipality's vision for the surplus lands at the College following the construction of the new provincial prison in our community. We also took the occasion to present Paul Harris Awards to Debbie Wilson and Rick Grahame of Grahame's Bakery for their silent and significant support to our community.
 
Pictured below are Debbie and Rick receiving their awards from Rotarian Anna.
 
 
Pictured below, Mayor Peckford and President-elect Nadia engage in a Q and A about some aspects of the mayor's presentation.
