Thank you to Glen who saw this on FB......We all remember Past President Nick.
 
President Meghan spoke to us about her trek on the Camino......So interesting and beautiful. We knew she had determination, but this was amazing.!!!!!
 
This is where Meghan walked......for over a 'MONTH'.
 
The different routes you can take..
 
 
The sign you look for to make sure you are on the correct route.
 
 
The people you meet along the way.......friends and strangers who become friends.
 
 
 
 
 
Thank you for sharing your experience and I think you have motivated some to take their own Trek.....
 
 
Rotary Gives a Ham foodraiser was this past weekend.  Thank you to everyone who bought hams.  Photo album is at the bottom of the Spike.
 
This is a FB write up from one of our past outgoing Exchange Student's MOM who is always a great supporter of our Rotary Club.  Thank you Cathy.

Heading home with our package from the “Port Moody Rotary Gives a Ham” promotion. Our purchased package includes a Chilliwack ham, cranberry mustard from Fort Langley, tulips from Langley, a pumpkin pie from Thrifty’s and chocolates ... best of all the promotion allowed Rotary to contribute a large donation to our local food bank. ♥️ No one takes care of logistics better than Rotary volunteers ... this was one smooth process! Tomorrow I’ll make scalloped potatoes and roasted vegetables for a great Easter dinner.
 
AND looks like Glen's family received their Ham package too !!!!  Such beautiful children !!!
