Our Rotary meeting will be at Coquitlam Grill this Wednesday at 7:00AM. Don't be early as they don't open until exactly 7:00 AM. Thanks to Monica for arranging this.
Years ago in 2009 a young man applied to be an Ambassadorial Scholar through Rotary International and we have been in touch with Yashar Keramati ever since. He has been in South Africa, Kenya, Angola, Cuba where he received his Degree as a Doctor. Yashar decded years ago that he only wanted to help those people who are in need and though Rotary World Help he has continued to do this. Dan Gallant has been his mentor and supporter for all these years and has help send many containers full of medical supplies wherever Yashar is in need.

Books and more books. Please take your books to our Little Free Library near Old Orchard Park or bring and Gayle will make sure they go in to our Little Library.
George went down to our little library and 'added' these words so hopefully now some people won't come and take 'all' the books as they have in the past, when we fill up the Little Free Library
We were blessed to have our outgoing student Addie and her Dad, Andrew join us for our meeting. Addie is going to Brazil for 1 year and is an amazing young lady. We wish her the very Best in this coming year. Addie promises to keep in touch with us to let us know how she is doing there.
Many in our Rotary Club have gone to the International Conference in Calgary. I'm sure they will all have a wonderful time there and bring back lots of good memories of the Conference.
