July 1st was the start of our new Rotary year — and I am proud, honoured, and excited to be the  2025-2026 President of the Rotary Club of Picton.

 

Our Rotary theme for this year is 'Unite for Good' (So good, So good!), an idea that builds on the power of human connection and shared purpose, and encourages Rotary members to work together to create positive change in our community and around the world.

 

Our very successful 'Pick Your Own Berries' fundraising initiative wrapped up on August 31as did our 36th Annual Picton Golf Classic held on August 28th. We held a Fire Extinguisher Sale at the Picton Firehall on Oct 11 and an Electronic Recycling Day at Picton Home Hardware on Oct 26. Our most recent fundraiser is the sale of our Rotary Ca$h Calendars which are now available at local stores.

 

All monies raised are to help with community initiatives, polio eradication, and for my Presidential year, our focus will be on kids.

 

Here's to new beginnings and the bright future ahead for our club! Thank you for your ongoing support.
