C.I.R.C.L.E at CARABRAM

For the weekend of July 14,15 and 16 the Rotary Club and District C.I.R.C.L.E. had a very busy booth at the Canada Pavilion. This was organized by Donna Keuhl, from Oneida Circle.  There was indigenous and traditional Canadian entertainment (cloggers, country and western singers, line dancing, and indigenous fashion, drumming and dancing.  The event was opened by MPP Andrea Horvath, and several politicians gave opening remarks.  Rotary distributed about 750 balloons to children – including a prediction about their future career.  For example, if a child said he/she wanted to be a chef we wrote on the balloon “Future Chef” in permanent marker, and tied the balloon to their arms.  Thank you to John, Marilyn and Kim Lomax who helped with the food; Luisa Mocon who arranged the helium –and the 15 youth volunteers who helped out over the very busy weekend.
