Joined by members of White Rock Peninsula and Surrey Fraser Heights and Central City Provisional Club we hosted our District Governor and his wife Maureen at our October 8th.meeting.
A good attendance of 32 enjoyed the wisdom of our District Governor as he hit all the important points in being a Rotarian in his address.
He related how he first saw a Rotary project and wondered who are ROTARY through his experiences in ROTARY to his current position.
He explained the 5 avenues of service talked about post Polio help as we are " just this close" to dealing with the disease but now have to look at helping those that were afflicted by the disease and now suffer from the outcomes.
