As the President of the Aldergrove Rotary Club for the 2023-24 term, I am thrilled to be leading our fun and dedicated membership in our mission to "CREATE HOPE in the WORLD." It's an incredible honor to be part of an organization that strives to make a positive impact on both local and international communities. This year, we are fortunate to have Gordon R. McInally as the new International Rotary president, and his vision and leadership will undoubtedly inspire us all.
In line with our mission, we have a series of exciting fundraising events lined up. Our annual Ribfest is August 18,19 and 20th, where we bring together delicious barbecue, live entertainment, and a vibrant atmosphere to raise funds for our causes. Additionally, we have Lobsterfest, a beloved event that combines culinary delight with philanthropy. As well as doing Ribfest with the Four Rotary Clubs of Langley we also present the Mega 50/50 Draw, offering participants a chance to win big while supporting our initiatives. And of course, the Pasta Party, where we gather over a delightful meal to celebrate our achievements and contribute to the betterment of society.
Through these events and many more, we aim to support causes like the Starfish Backpack program and numerous others, ensuring that hope reaches those who need it most. Let's make this a great year! Come join us for breakfast, service and fellowship for the good of Rotary!
