The Rotary Club of Bracebridge and the Rotary Club of Bracebrdige-Muskoka Lakes made a generous donation to the Life4Kids Boys' School in Kenya. The two clubs furnished a complete music room in the school including all the instruments and supplies. In her letter to the clubs, CEO Jane Wasike noted, "Words may not fully capture the depth of our appreciation, but the songs the children will sing and the smiles on their faces from our boys and staff will express what our hearts cannot. Thank you for giving them a gift that will shape their hearts and futures for many years to come."
If you are donating from a computer, please ensure you scroll to the bottom of the payment page and after you enter your address, to check or uncheck if you wish to also make a donation to Canada Helps.
It should be noted that the Local Bracebridge Staples store donated a large amount of those school supplies plus provided a discount to purchase other items needed in Jamaica. Thank You Staples for your very generous donation.
The Wizard of Oz was a big uccess with sell out crowds. Another great yer.
Bob's name will once again be put on the Frank Miller Memorial Trophy as the best ticket seller in our Club. However, more importantly, bob will enjoy his hot drinks from a Lady Gaga mug - Bob's favourite artist who is also a great philanthropist!!
The picture is a little fuzzy (must have been the egg nog!) but a group of dedicated Rotarians installed the beautiful lights and swags on the Rotary Centennial Gardens fence ready for the holiday season. Happy Holidays to All.
Bracebridge Legion Branch 161 Poppy Chair Shirley Ruttan accepts a cheque of $500 from Rotary Club President Jon Denbok to go towards the Legion's annual Poppy campaign. All monies raised by the legion goes toward helping aging veterans and for youth programs. If you used to put a remembrance ad in the local newspaper, consider giving that amount directly to the Legion branch now that there are no newspapers. All of the money from your donation will now go to the Legion and not to a newspaper!! On November 11th, please remember those who gave their lives to keep us free.

Rotarians Karen Quemby, Darragh Parsons, Carrie Fellows and Linda Brouillette get ready to greet the Canada Day Fireworks Sponsors at Bracebridge Bay for Rotary's 14th annual Fireworks display. Canada Day celebrations means all Rotarians are hard at work bringing fun and joy to the community. The club also thanks Rotarians from The Rotary Club of Bracebridge-Muskoka Lakes and the Rotary Club of Huntsville who helped man the entrance gates and ask for donations from the community.
This year, Rotary added a drone display for those who like the flash without the noise! The pets sure loved it!
But its not a Canada Day Fireworks show without real fireworks! The fireworks company (and Rotarians who helped), didn't disappoint.
