$500 Donation to the Forest School
On a cold Parry Sound day, a warm act of community spirit took shape in front of the Parry Sound Forest School sign. In the photo, Rotary Club of Parry Sound Revival president Rick Cain shakes hands with Kira Jordan as the club marks a $500 donation to the Forest School — a modest sum on paper, but the kind of practical support that helps local ideas keep growing. The Rotary Club of Parry Sound Revival has been building momentum as a newly chartered club under Rick Cain’s leadership, with a clear focus on service close to home.
The donation reflects exactly the kind of community investment that matters in small places: local people backing local children, local learning, and local opportunity. The Parry Sound Forest School is centered on outdoor, nature-based experiences for children and families, and this contribution signals confidence in that work. In a town where community efforts are often built one relationship at a time, the handshake in this picture says a great deal: Rotary Revival is not just meeting, it is showing up.
More than a cheque, this is a sign of alignment between two community-minded forces — one focused on service, the other on helping children learn and thrive outdoors. It is the kind of partnership that strengthens the social fabric of Parry Sound: practical, visible, and rooted in the belief that small investments can have lasting effects.
