New RI theme  Rotary Opens Opportunities
Rotary is not just a club that you join. It is an invitation to endless opportunities. It opens opportunities to serve in a project as big and historic as End Polio Now and also in a small community project, where you just plant a tree. And it opens opportunities for you to live a richer, more meaningful life, with friends around the world, based on our core values. As Rotarians, we are very blessed to take on leadership roles at this wonderful moment for our organization. Everything we do opens another opportunity for someone, somewhere. Therefore, the theme for our year is: Rotary Opens Opportunities.

Today's Speaker

SAVE THE RAIN

3 students from the Muskoka Montessori School spoke to us about the Save the Rain project in Tanzania

They learned of the Global Water Crisis at a conference in New York City last year

844 M people in the world live without clean water

3.4 M people die each year due to water related problems

Deforestation has disrupted the water cycle causing catastrophic results

Rain water has been identified as a Water source and this group is building water holding units to collect rainwater 

They have been selling items from Tanzania to raise funds and have accumulated $4000 so far

June 2 2020 they will be holding a Walk for Water

 

Huntsville Robotics

The Rotary Club of Huntsville sponsors the Huntsville High Robotics Club, this year with $2000

Last year the team reached the Provincial championship quarter finals

They won Awards during the competitions  Engineering Inspiration Award, Excellence in Engineering and the Team Spirit Award

You can visit with the Team and see the robot in practice action at the Huntsville Place Mall.
