Our club was founded in 1946 and we are over 80 members strong. Our community is a scenic oceanfront city on the eastern shore of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. We are blessed with an abundance of natural beauty, mild weather year round, and many outdoor activities.
We meet at noon every Wednesday with great club spirit and fellowship. We participate in a wide-range of community, youth, and international projects including hosting international students in our community and sponsoring local students to visit other nations through Youth Exchange.
Over the years, our Club has put millions of dollars and tens of thousands of volunteer hours into making our community and our world a better place to live.
The over 90 Rotary Clubs in our district combined typically donate over 400,000 volunteer hours and several million dollars annually to making our communities and the world a better place.
Rotary International is the world's first service club organization, with more than 1.2 million members in over 35,000 clubs worldwide. Rotary club members are volunteers who work locally, regionally, and internationally to combat hunger, improve health and sanitation, provide education and job training, promote peace, and eradicate polio under the motto "Service Above Self".
Colleen hopes to spotlight Rotary International’s 2022 Theme of Imagine, by digging deeper to increase diversity, equity and inclusion among the community and CR Rotary’s membership. There are so many great things to accomplish and achieve in this world that new members can be a part of! With Passion, Excitement and being open to New Change she looks forward to a year full of engagement.
