On December 18^th Fonthill Rotarians and friends gathered to celebrate the holidays, share memories of 2024 and look forward to 2025.   The social event was held at The Rose Manor in Welland, with thanks to hosts Kristen and Kathryn Groom. Many thanks organizers Ann Harrison and Mel Groom.

Regular meetings with guest speakers will resume in January. 

The Rotary Club of Fonthill extends best wishes to all Rotarians and Friends of Rotary throughout the holiday season and into the New Year!

Thank you to #FriendOfRotary Rob Lucchetta!

The Accursi Room of the Meridian Community Centre (MCC) in Fonthill was the place to be in early November when a full house of participants and volunteers came together to support the Rotary Club of Fonthill’s annual Purse Bingo. Gathering to socialize, chat, and play some bingo, our community came together to support Fonthill Rotary.  All the proceeds from the event flow directly from the Rotary Club to local charities. This year, the proceeds from the evening went to Pathstone Mental Health Satellite Program for youth, held at the MCC as well as to Pelham Cares. With outstanding support during the evening, the club will be able to present Pathstone with a cheque for $5,000 and Pelham Cares with a cheque for $4,600.

 

The Rotary Club of Fonthill is a welcoming group of professionals both working and retired who meet weekly in Pelham to improve the lives of others.

 

Every fall, they hold their annual fundraising auction. It’s a popular event many look forward to, and the money raised makes their work possible. It’s the club’s major fundraiser.
