On Tuesday morning, 15 Apr 2025, Gail Catherwood welcomed our own Kristine Carey, General Manager at Venture Norfolk as our Guest Speaker. At our hybrid (ie live attendance at R83 with zoom remote attendance) session, she spoke to us about many of the issues related to an organization committed to playing a local leadership role in delivering financial and consulting services to small and medium-sized enterprises. The result was a much fuller perspective on the totally helpful work that Kristine, her Board and the staff at Venture Norfolk do to promote our County.More information about Kristine as an individual is enclosed at the "Read more ..." tab whilst more general info about Venture Norfolk may be found by clicking here.
Noting his personal connections to Venture Norfolk as well as those of many of his acquaintances who have similarly benefitted from Venture Norfolk, Paul Zorad offered Kristine our sincere appreciation for a great presentation, and for the wonderful development work she has been and is continuing to coordinate in Norfolk County.
On Saturday, 05 April, a small convoy of Norfolk Sunrisers proceeded to the D7090 Annual Conference at the Club Italia, just outside of St Catharines.

The RCNS's Community Service Ctte has approved a donation in support of certain essential upgrades necessary at the Simcoe Curling Club (SCC). At the enclosed photo, we see Jim Peters presenting a cash contribution to SCC members Sarah Nichol and Murray Uren. These funds will go a long way towards the kitchen upgrades needed to meet local standards and are destined to purchase a 3 compartment sink and faucet as part of the SCC's larger overall kitchen renovation needs.
Following nine, successfully-concluded licences of our ever-popular Catch the Ace (CTA) fundraiser, the Rotary Club of Norfolk Sunrise, with the support of the Port Dover Legion Branch 158, will be re-starting the game on Friday 09 May '25. This new start will be our tenth licence and it will conclude once the Ace of Spade is finally drawn later in the year.
