Twelve members and guests met for breakfast at the Wyndham Hotel on March 1, 2023.
It was great to have one of our alumnus members, Temi, t for a visit. Maybe she will rejoin our Club.
The Wyndham has resurrected the breakfast buffet in the Terrace and we were able to enjoy the buffet. It was great!
Our Youth Director, Jamie Pallet, invited members to join him for a U of A Rotaract fundraiser for The Boyle Street Community Services on Saturday March 4.
Jamie participated in the Coldest Night of the Year walk over the last weekend. He reported that our club raised over $1,000 for that event. He said that it was a fun event and encouraged more of us to be involved next year. Finally we held a draw for a beautiful ”Coldest Night of the Year”. Thanks for doing this Jamie.
Our Club will be making Soup with the “Soup Sisters” on March March 23. It is a great organisation and it sounds like a fun event. Contact Judy or deb if you can join us.

Today there are approximately 4,500 realtor members and it paid $450,000 in grants last year. Grants are made to local registered charities. Anika promised to keep us informed about their upcoming walk and golf tournament fundraisers and to feature any of our fundraiser events the foundations newsletter.
