David Post and Karen Walsh paid a visit to the Canmore Rotary club in Canmore Alberta Canada. The club is the home club of the late Dr Brent Pickard who for many years made Wagga his home and was an adopted member of Wollundry. David and Karen were especially pleased with the welcome they received from the 75 members that were present for their Christmas meeting. David told the members about the Canmore Festival of Trees in the halls of the beautiful Malcolm Hotel. Local businesses or individuals purchase a tree for from 300 to 3000 dollars and decorate it according to their business theme. The project brings in $100,000 a year for the club. In the above photo they are on the deck of the Canmore Golf and Curling club, holding Rotary club exchange banners. |
