Three exciting events that took place for Brock Niagara Rotaract, this month, were the celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday (January 18th), District 7090’s Recruitment Event (January 23rd), and the monthly photo contest (January 25th – January 31st). First, this year, as with other Brock clubs, Brock Niagara Rotaract decided to celebrate this American Civil Rights icon’s birthday to encourage unity in the community and as a reminder of where communities must continue growing when it comes to discrimination against black people (and other minorities). Next, club members were also invited to the district’s free Rotaract Recruitment Event to further learn about Rotaract. Lastly, Brock Niagara Rotaract presented January’s theme for the monthly photo contest, Lockdown Productivity, to members and non-members wanting to show their productivity this month, while under the province-wide lockdown in Ontario.
