A little bird told us that Santa was coming to town and that there would be a parade. Members got together on a sunny afternoon to put a float together so that we could join in the festivities.

In our first in person meeting in a long while, we were pleased to be joined by District Governor Fay Campbell. Fay gave us an update on the Rotary Foundation as well as exploring what brought each one of us to join Rotary.
The evening served to welcome two new members to our club, Rotarian Vic who joins us by way of transfer from Brooks, Alberta and
our newest Rotarian, Nadia who was inducted by President Nancy and ADG Cora.
After a year's absence due to the pandemic, Rotary's cash calendars will soon be available for purchase. The cost of each calendar is $20.00 and offers a daily prize of up to $1000. Proceeds are used for Rotary's ongoing community projects. They will be available from club members and for sale at various locations around our community. Your support helps us to support the community. Thank you.
Our site hasn't been updated in a while but we have not been idle. We have quietly cleaned up the paths along the Kemptville Creek early summer, sorted books for the KYC Youth Centre book fair and worked at small projects in between. In partnership with The Egg Farmers of Ontario, our club ran the first Rotary Writers Competition for youth. Pictured below are the sponsors and winning members for their categories.
If you wish to contribute to your community and have some fun, contact us for more information.
Due to the current public health situation, our club will not be physically gathering until further notice. Our meetings will be held virtually for the foreseeable future. Please follow public health directives and stay safe. Thank you to those on the front lines for their efforts in keeping us safe.
