Congratulations to Reece Dozzi -- for receiving his 6th Paul Harris Fellow pin, in recognition of his continued contributions to the Rotary Foundation and the good work of Rotary everywhere.

Reece is our youngest member, showing that the future is indeed bright!
This week's guest speaker was Jeff Sodowski, a fundraising consultant working with the Dr REM Lee Hospital Foundation on the NeoNatal ICU project for the Hospital.
Jeff had some exciting things to say about the new Mills Memorial Hospital currently under construction in Terrace and the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.
At this week's meeting, Terrace Rotary President Chad Sallenback was proud to present a $7250 cheque to Giselle Birch who is a member of our sister club, the Rotary Club of Terrace-Skeena Valley, to support their amazing Starfish Backpack program which provides nutritious food to school students in need here in the Terrace-Thornhill area.
Preliminary figures show bids were up this year compared to 2022, as the Rotary Club of Terrace held its annual Online Fundraising Auction over the weekend.
Auction chair Brian Downie says this year's bids totalled $47,842 -- which is a three thousand dollar increase over last year's preliminary figures.
In addition, local businesses donated a total of $3,450 in cash to the club.
