The vibrant Rotary Club of Orillia

Sometimes actions speak louder than words!  Yesterday I spent 4 hours with a number of members of this vibrant and very effective Rotary Club.  When I asked the Directors what they were passionate about they said everything and that was so evident when we reviewed their list of initiatives, programs and activities.

Besides attending the Board meeting and regular Club meeting for my "official visit", George and I had the opportunity of visiting two of their major initiatives, (the outside of the new Rotary Place, a community recreation centre [a joint project of the 2 Orillia Rotary Clubs] and the extension to the Orillia YMCA) and a number of their older services to the community.  During the Club meeting I assisted in presenting a Paul Harris Recognition Pin, medalian and certificate to John Mayo, a community member for his community service efforts.
