The last meeting of 2023 began with one of our favourite activities – an induction! Sunrisers inducted our newest member, local realtor, Chanelle Cantwell into the club. Then, Charter President, Gerry Lougheed delivered his annual Christmas message. According to Sylvie Gaskin, “Every time Gerry delivers a speech, he inspires me and teaches me something. Today was no different!” Gerry emphasized the importance of living with purpose and passion, embracing and learning from our mistakes, kissing the person we love like we were 16, and shining your light on this world. (check out the post by Kris Cacciotti on Facebook). He also noted that as Rotarians, through Service Above Self, our lives, our love and our light can improve the story for others. Then Gerry assumed the role of Santa, handing out cups and cookies to all the good little boys and girls – THE SUNRISERS!!! |
