Bread Rescue Team in Action

What an action packed time this afternoon (May 22nd) when we were needed to help repackage an entire day of baked goods, headed to the needy. About twelve, from our club (including Jane, Marcia and her hubby Sylvain, Musset and Dorothy) and Capital Church volunteers worked together. Goods had been created during a training session for the new COBS bakery in Rockland and shared as part of the Lionsheart program. Fantastic team work!!

May 10th Mother's Day Tea Party

The 2025 Mother’s Day tea party is a wrap. So much fun. Lovely fascinators. Delicious catered food. Great singer to entertain us with her lovely voice. Lovely silent auction items, so appreciated by those attending. Mashooda and her team did a great job, including Collette, Dorothy, Eli, Jane, Micheline, Musset, Peggy, plus we had lots of help from our Interact members and daughters of our club’s members. Thanks to the generosity of attendees we have raised funds to support community projects. We hope to see you in 2026!

Helping Feeding Needy People

Rotarians in action!! Getting a good workout tonight (April 30th) while helping our community! We packed at least 100 boxes of essential food items for the needy. They will be delivered to families this weekend. Thanks to Mashooda for organizing this event for our club. Many of the pictures were action shots, not posed, as we were kept busy gathering the essentials and then packing, sealing them and storing them. Bonus, volunteers received a box of girl guide cookies, yum!!
