At today's lunch meeting we had guest speaker David Johnstone from the LNG advocacy group, The North Matters, present to the club. The North Matters is a local grassroots organization advocating for economic development and the well being of all who live in Northern BC. 

We'd like to welcome our two newest club members, Tara Evans and Garret Dobson. We're so happy to have you!

MP Nathan Cullen spoke to the Rotary Club of Terrace on January 9th, 2017. A former Rotarian himself, Mr. Cullen spoke on a wide range of subjects that are affecting our Country today. 

The 56th Annual Rotary Club of Terrace Auction was held November 5th and 6th with great success!  $72 000 of donated items were auctioned off by the spirited efforts of our Auctioneers.  At the end of the Auction,  we have raised $44 600, plus we received another $3700 from cash donors.  We appreciate the enthusiasm of bidders who placed some 5300 bids before and during the 13 hours of the Auction.

 

Our Auction provides funds that enable the Club to respond to requests for financial assistance to many organizations in the community.  Those organizations provide benefits to youth, to the community facilities, to social programs and to recreational programs.

 

Each year, we thank our donors, volunteers and our supporters in Citywest, TLC Solutions, Bell Media and the Terrace Standard for their contributions to this successful event.  Without your enthusiastic involvement, we could not reach our fundraising goals.

 

Mark your calendars for the 2017 Rotary Club of Terrace Online Auction to be held November 4th and 5th, 2017.

Grace Griffin turned 7 years old on June 18^th. For her birthday she asked that instead of her friends bringing her a present, that they make a donation to the Rotary Splash Park. Grace raised $220 dollars and presented the money at a special Family day lunch meeting on June 20^th in front of her friends and family. In attendance, were members from the Terrace Rotary club and the Rotaract club.                         

 

Honored to receive the funds in the picture from left to right are Chad Sallenback, club Secretary and friend of Grace, Grace Griffin and Rotary Splash Park Chairman, Kelly Gingles.

Way to go Grace!
