The Rotary Club was blessed with a classification talk by Neil Mardian. Neil shared his personal side, his business side and the impact Rotary has already made on his and his family's life. Neil reminded us why we joined Rotary and no matter where we travel in the world there will always be a welcoming Rotary face to greet us. Thanks Neil!
Following Neil's talk, Sandy MacKay was honored to present an Honorary Paul Harris Fellowship to long time Rotary Music Festival, Office manager, Lori McKenzie. For 26 years Lori has supported the Rotary Music Festival. Wow! Thank you for all you do in our Community Lori!
