Rotarians spent the weekend at the TEAD farm grooming and feeding horses, putting equipment away for the winter and painting. We provided funds to TEAD so they could purchase feed but I want to thank all the Rotarians for their "hands on " efforts this weekend.

Bruce Pearson, Beth Pearson, Scott Forbes and Murray Green from the Ancaster AM Rotary Club delivering $2,000 of food from Food Basics. What a great feeling to help others in the community. If you want to get involved consider joining us in your local Rotary Club.

Our third rider, Carson Mattern, raising funds for the Polio Campaign.

“I joined Rotary for the opportunity to give back to my local community as well as internationally. Raising money to address such concerns as hunger, health care, poverty, and literacy appeal to me. Rotary was founded on fellowship and that ideal remains a major attraction to members to this day. I have learned that our weekly meetings keep members informed about what is taking place in the community, nationally and internationally.
