Celebrating A Decade of Service! 

The Rotary Club of Edmonton Whyte Avenue celebrated a major milestone this past Tuesday - our 10th anniversary! 

Past and current members alike came out to celebrate this important occasion. Local partners, members and alumni from the greater Rotary family, as well as members from the community came out to pack the Almanac as we celebrated 10 years as a club! This event also included Rotary alumni so they could come and network as well as meet members of the community.  

People chatted, networked, and reminisced all night in celebration of the club. The evening was capped off with a cake featuring the club logo as well as having every single past president come up on the stage to celebrate!

Thank you to the 10th Anniversary Committee members for all of your hard work putting this event together.

Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy the 10th anniversary party and alumni event. Here is to another 10 years!
