PRINCIDENT'S BALL
June 17 2020 will go down in the annals of Rotary history as the first ever virtual President's Ball with champagne, fancy dress, awards, breaking news and all types of fun that made it a memorable evening. It was made possible through the efforts and imagination of many including; Sherrie Jamieson and Leslie for organizing the event, Ian Bourhill for the studio (ie garage), Tom Smith and Rick Lewall for the pictures, Jill Moore for the flowers, Dave Hamilton and Judy LaFlamme (McLeod) for the bulletins and many more.
