Well done RCNS!!
The tree planting crew from Friday, May 4, 2018. RCNS planted 50 trees in 90 minutes along the Norfolk Sunrise Trail beside the Lions Park in Simcoe. The Norfolk Environmental Stewardship Team (NEST) helped, as in photo. Jim Peters and Andy Kooistra are absent from the photo but were critical members of the crew - Andy ran the skid steer with auger to drill the holes. Nice shirts and great community support, RCNS!!!

Alan Plater took this photo of Keith with an authentic Adirondack chair on sale behind Rona at our Trail Clean-Up on Saturday. Allan thought it should be on sale because it only had 3 legs left to sit on. You might expect that Dr. Plater has experience with fixing broken legs, so we presume he took this sale treasure home.
Lucine McKay brought awareness to the club April 17th on behalf of Norfolk Dental Hygiene.
She had Rotarians blowing bubbles for those are not able due to oral cancers.
Thank you Lucine. 
The Rotary Club of Norfolk Sunrise has been working with Pikangikum First Nation in NW Ontario for five years. This year, Rotary teamed up with supplier Algonquin Outfitters, OPP, and the Rotary District 7090 to help outfit the school’s outdoor program with $4500 worth of camping and canoeing equipment so that the school now has the ability to outfit complete canoe trips and hiking adventures.
So all of this happened...
at only one RCNS breakfast meeting!
1. Jim Simpson (L) and Eric Haverkamp (R) of Church Out Serving showed us the frozen dinners prepared by the Emergency Meals Program and Eric thanked RCNS for the support from Catch the Ace Funds.
2. Gail Catherwood (R) presented Don Emerson (L) with his 4th Paul Harris pin. Don is a generous donor to The Rotary Foundation as well as a valued community volunteer, including the Simcoe Caring Cupboard.
3. Stella Barker (R) introduced former Rotary Exchange Student, aka a Rotex, Michelle Kloepfer as our guest speaker. Michelle spent her exchange year in Brazil 14 years ago. She described her life since her exchange, is currently working in International Operations at Titan Trailers and recently purchased Cranberry Creek Gardens along with her brother. She and her husband are organizing Paris Drinks Festival in Paris, ON slated for August 18, 2018. Rotary Exchange has served you well Michelle!

Rotary Sunrisers Supporting the Young Theatre Arts Community
The Young Theatre Players group on Pond St has a long history in developing young aspirants to the stage. Run by an energetic volunteer group, the YTP has an alumni to be proud of and a current program in need of continuing community support. Enter Rotary Sunrisers - stage left!
With our CTA proceeds, we were able to contribute enough funding to run two important acting workshops for this group over the next year. Appreciative enough to gather together the intermediate class, the YTP thanks everyone at RCNS for the donation as well as for the work they do to support the Norfolk community.
