Recently, the Rotary Club of Truro supported a critical community project in Peru: the installation of a modern, water-tight roof to support a children's school. The Club's sponsorship was initiated through the Rotary Friendship Exchange. This is the power of Rotary!
A heartfelt thank you goes out to all our sponsors, attendees, and performers for our fabulous 100th Anniversary Celebration Dinner. Much fun was had, and Ellie Black was a wonderful and engaging speaker (the picture above is Ellie with the Cobequid Dance Academy dancers who performed three numbers representing different decades in the last century).
The Rotary Club was pleased to present two awards this year: The Rotarian of the Year, Dr Joanna McGowan, and our Rotarian Community Service Award winner Esther Bejarano.
We couldn't have put this event on without our sponsors:
Gold — Stu Rath
Silver — Truro Toyota/Pye Chevrolet Buick GMC, McDonalds, Scotia Wealth Management, and KFC Taco Bell.
Bronze — G&G Computers.
Thank you to the Town of Truro and the Municipality of Colchester for their grants in support of our celebration.
Here's to the next 100 years! Check out our Facebook Page for many more event photos.
The new community hall is now under construction, with the foundation and floor being poured summer/fall 2022, and framing starting in March 2023. The goal is to have it completed for Fall 2023 and we need your help! With the increased cost of construction materials, there is a funding gap of $250,000. Please help us rebuild the community by donating through the Donate page, in partnership with the Community Foundation of Nova Scotia, who will provide a tax receipt for amounts $20 or more. For donations over $500, please contact the Community Foundation of Nova Scotia office at accounting@cfns-fcne.ca, or for in kind items please contact Alana Hirtle or one of the Hall Trustees. Join in our efforts to rebuild Portapique! http://weblink.donorperfect.
