ROTARY CLUB OF FORT GARRY

Next Meeting: Monday March 11, 2024 at 12:15 PM

Guest Speaker:

We were pleased to welcome

Ron Miller, our president, presided over our meeting today. Thanks to all who attended.

Fort Richmond Collegiate is having a Career Symposium in April 11, 2024. Our club will have a table that will promote Rotary and the values of Rotary.

Rotary Adventure in Citizenship will take place in Ottawa May 26 - 29/24.

Some of our members have been actively looking for a place for us to have our lunches. To date all of the places that we approach are too expensive. The search will continue, until an alternative location is found we will continue to have our meetings at Rotary Villa.

Our District Governor, Sonja Susuts was in Winnipeg last week. Since we didn't have a meeting that week Ron Miller met Sonja at Rotary Villa on Friday February 23rd and gave her a tour of Rotary Villa and then took her to lunch. Sonja sent an E-Mail to Ron thanking him for the tour of Rotary Villa and she said how impress she was with the Villa and appreciated all the work that is being done by everyone to maintain Rotary Villa.

At our next meeting we want to spend some time talking about what our best approach would be for us increase our membership,

Our District conference will be held in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan this year on May 10 & 11 2024. A separate email will be sent to all members with all the details that we have to date.

Rotary International Convention 2025 will be held in Calgary June 21 - 25, 2025. This is a great change for Rotarians to attend an International Conference that is being held so close to Winnipeg. We will send you more information as it becomes available.

Our Marathon will be held on September 22, 202
