We had a full day of activities that included food holes, beverage sampling, on-course games, antipasto bar reception and prizes. Having fun and giving back to the community is what it's all about. Over the past years we have raised over $2 million that has gone directly back to local youth programs, hospitals, seniors activities, hospice, park facilities and local charities.

Claire Conway thanked us for our past support. She was last at our Club in 2014 to support a Global Grant project in Uganda. Their newest International initiative, also in Uganda, is part of a $210,000 USD project to update a school, improve basic health standards (latrines, fresh water, gardens, computers) and purchase supplies, including sewing machines. The project addresses all 7 of Rotary's areas of focus. After her presentation, Tunde presented Claire with a cheque for $1500
