 I have said it before and I will say it again......Christmas has now begun!!!  What a great morning we had at Miller Ave. cooking chill for the men in Recovery.  I would like to thank those that came to volunteer their time at such a busy time of year.

Jason Davies - Soux Chef

Isy Beane & Jen  Dish wipers and servers

Gene Vickers & Keith Vernon - Walmart Shoppers - thank you Rotary for the 25 brand new 'bowls'

Gayle Carter - Table decorator /Shopper of gifts

Myself - photographer/shopper & server

A huge big Thank you to Ron Baker and his staff at Canadian Western Bank, who 'topped up' our gifts to the fellows to make their Christmas gift excellent.

And of  course to Thrifty Foods who provide all of the food to make the chill.

The Chili was excellent ....must of been much better than last year as we only had a small amount left.  It is so amazing to me to meet these men and to see how grateful they are that we come to do this.  We received thank you cards from the men and one of the inscriptions was the following " Thank you for the food, it was mmmm good. And reminds me that there are still people in this world what love people for who they are not judge what they have done done in the past. "

I'm sure that the Rotarians that went to Prairie had a similar experience.  Thank you so much

Rotary Club of Port Moody.  GREAT GREAT DAY !!!!
