FUNDRAISING REAPS BIG RESULTS

The Rotary Club of St. Catharines donated $15,000 to the Welland Canal Fallen Workers Memorial Fund.   St. Catharines Mayor and fellow Rotarian, Walter Sendzik and campaign chairman, Greg White, were in attendance to accept the donation.  As a result of Rotary and community efforts to raise funds through the Rotary TV auction, Algoma Golf tournament and Ribfest, two more donations were also presented.  Club President Cindy Mewhinney was pleased to present a $25,000 cheque to the Niagara Children's Centre and $25,000 to the new First Ontario Performing Arts Centre.  The club is very grateful to the Algoma Corporation and all the volunteers that provided "service above self" in order to assist in raising all the funds!
