Club President Mary Jackson organized and hosted a meeting to recognize and honor the Charter Members of Kalamalka Rotary, which was formed 35 years ago. Thirteen of the original thirty six members were located and attended the lunch. They told stories of how the club started and their first efforts at fund raising. This ranged from selling Christmas Trees, from a questionable location, to the start of our Dream Auction. It was recognized that through their efforts, commitment and service that a strong foundation was formed which has seen the club grow and prosper. The first photo below was taken at the lunch. The one below that was taken 35 years ago.
