Powerful talk today from Navid  - Women's Right to Fight for Democracy 
 
I can't even begin to write about how powerful Navid's talk today was on the women of Iran.  The courage the people of Iran have to stand up to the government to fight for Democracy is beyond what we will ever know.
We would all like to thank Navid for this presentation and for informing us about Iran and what the media does not tell us.  
FREEDOM is essential in our lives and we must all watch that it is not taken away here, in our very own country.

Manor Christmas Magic!

It is wonderful to watch the eyes of the residents as they see their home being transformed by a myriad of twinkling lights outside, ceilings decked with boughs, warm wreaths cozying up the hallways, colourful Christmas trees bringing back memories, and a spirit of Christmas magic welcoming all throughout the manor inside and out. 

We make a great team - staff, volunteers, manor residents, Rotarians and their families. 

Thank you for adding Christmas sparkle to the Manor for those who live, work and visit there
Merry Christmas!
