Another great evening at The Shore while attending Lincoln Rotary's It's Five O'clock Somewhere social night. In attendance we had a special guest Katie Marino from the Kristian French Child Advocacy Centre. Katie was presented with a cheque for $7090 from the proceeds of Lincoln Rotary's Bike the Benchlands event held in August. #itsfiveoclocksomewhere #rotarycluboflincolnoncanada #theshore #KristenFrenchChildAdvocacyCentre #bikethebenchlands

Spreading Holiday Cheer with Every Smile! 

It’s time to get your smiles on!
Members of the Rotary Club of Lincoln and the Rotary Club of Grimsby teamed with at the Queenston Street Tim Hortons in St. Catharines to decorate Holiday Smile Cookies.
From November 17 to 23, 2025, every holiday cookie purchased at Tim Hortons locations across St. Catharines, Thorold, and Niagara-on-the-Lake helps the Kristen French Child Advocacy Centre shine a little brighter.
Every single dollar raised supports children, youth, and families in our community as they heal and find hope after experiencing abuse. It’s a sweet way to make a massive difference.

Thanks to the Lincoln Rotarians that joined Ontariogreen Conservation Association 40+ volunteers who came out to plant Beamsville's new mini forest on the vacant lot between 4049 and 4051 Ashby Drive. A total of 85 native trees and shrubs were planted consisting of 27 species. The environmental committee of the club and several other club members came out on Nov 1 to help with the planting of the trees and shrubs. It was a gorgeous morning and many hands had all the trees planted in a very short time.
Lincoln Rotary Environmental Committee had the privilege of donating some funds to support the Green Herons in a tree planting project along the Konkle Creek trail in Lincoln.
The Green Herons are a Niagara-based community group that are on a mission to empower youth across the region, championing projects that safeguard our natural spaces and protect native species. Approximately 20 black and red oak were planted. #greenherons #rotarycluboflincolnON #areaoffocus #engagingyouth #EnvironmentalStewardship #supportingyouthinitiatives
Rotary Club of Lincoln marked historic progress toward a polio free world, while urging community support to end the paralyzing disease. This event was among thousands to be held by Rotary across the globe on World Polio Day. Joined by the Mayor, some councilors and staff raised the " END POLIO NOW" flag at Town of Lincoln, Ontario .
The flag was raised in honour of World Polio Day Oct 24. The flag will be flown for two weeks to raise awareness, funds and support to end polio- a vaccine preventable disease that Rotarians around the world are striving to eradicate from the world. Since Rotary and its partners launched the Polio Eradication Initiative in 1988 the incidence of polio has plummeted by more than 99.9%.

On September 9 our District Governor Aaron Carleson visited our club for the annual District Governor visit.
Aaron extended greetings on behalf of his home club, Lockport NY, as well as the District leadership team. He expressed his appreciation for Lincoln Rotarians serving among those on the District’s leadership team now and in past years.
Expanding on Rotary’s theme "Unite for Good", he explained that it is grounded in the VISION, "Together we see a world where people unite and take action to create lasting change across the globe, in our communities and in ourselves."
As Rotarians, our collective focus has been on membership and securing Rotary's future. Rotary’s greatest asset is our members. Aaron shared his membership story that began when he moved from Texas to Lockport, NY & his new boss encouraged him to join Rotary to get to know his new community. He explained that his club has become like family over the past 8 years. In 'fireside chat' style, several club members shared their stories.
Celebrating one of our amazing Lincoln Rotarians Nour Hage. On September 18, at Lincoln Chamber of Commerce’s Outstanding Business Achievement Awards Nour received the Young Professional of the Year Award. This award recognizes a professional under the age of 40, who consistently demonstrates excellence in their occupation and/or has tackled the ever-increasing challenges of entrepreneurship.
