October 4th Rotary Club Meeting

Today we welcomed Myers Bennett as our newest member. Ron Leigh introduced Jonathan Smith. He has many years experience retail and hotel management. He is currently the proud new owner of Wine Kitz. His wife Gail is a chef by profession but is a key partner in Wine Kitz. Currently Wine Kitz is one of the largest and most well respected wine producers in the world under the Peller Estates umbrella. His winemaker is based on niagara and is sourcing the best grapes and juices. Production of wine is done is St.Catherines, Ontario and then shipped throughout Canada. Each kit purchased at Wine Kitz provides the right tools to produce the wine. The kits range from 4-8 weeks for various varietals. The wine making stage at every process is carefully monitored. They offer a wine of the month promotion where wines are offered at 15% off.

Roger also presented us with an excellent tip sheet on the signs of a stroke. In his case he was lucky enough to get to the hospital in time. It is essential to get treatment within 3 hours. He was able to walk out the hospital without any paralysis or long term damage. Thank goodness!

October is Polio Awareness month. On October 24 we will be doing our Polio walk with signs.
