We had a Zoom meeting as the Well was closed for the morning. We were sad to hear that our Chef Spencer lost a close family member and we send our condolences and support to he and his family.
President Susan does a great job on 'zoom' and Sgt. at Arms Darrell made sure he spoke to everyone on line.
Bill
PeterLots of talk about the past weekend the the Plunge and how much fun it was and looks like the same 'team' will be 'in' again next year. Come on out and 'plunge for Special Olympics'.
Cleone was over the moon with the young people that came out the RIPS this year. 62 volunteers and the young Scouts were there to tell the Sasamat leaders why they were pulling the ivy and blackberry bushes.
Congratulations to Ryan and Brittany. We are sad to see you leave but we are excited about this new chapter of your lives.
Please keep in touch xo
Happy Birthday to Monica. May all your wishes come true xoxo. You are a 'light' in our Rotary Club and we are grateful you are a part of it.
Bill - 8 years with our Rotary Club. For all the work that Bill does it seems he has been with us 'forever'. We are so grateful for you Bill. You are always one of the first to sign up for any event we have and of course you are Port Moody's Recycle King.
Happy Anniversary to Peter & Merle. We wish you many more years of Health & Happiness together.
Cleone talked about International Woman's Day and for us to think about the women who most influenced us in our lives. Well done Cleone.....
If you have any ideas about who would be a great Guest Speaker for our Rotary Club of Port Moody, please let Darrell know.

Heritage Woods Secondary
Our Rotary Club has been involved in Capstone for many years. It is so very interesting to go to this and listen to the Grade 12 students talk about what they want to do in the future.
Sign up if you are interested.
Our Little Lending Library.
Please bring your books to Rotary on Wednesday so Gayle can 'fill' our Little Lending Library. It has been out of commission for some time now, while the construction was going on at Old Orchard Hall. The City informed us it will be going back up this week.
Thanks for your help.
Every 2nd Saturday of the month the Rotary Club of Port Moody cleans up Heritage Mtn. Blvd. We meed at Gallaghers coffee shop in Newport Village and leave at exactly 9:00 AM to walk up the hill and pick up trash. This past Saturday it was once again cleaned up by these strong handsome men. Thank you Alan for organizing this every month. PP and Past AG Al took the photo.
Please remember to bring school supplies for Belize children and give to Brian W. The container will be leaving soon.
