Rotary - MP Martin Shields MLA Leela Aheer & City Councillor Michelle Young - June 2018

The Rotary Club of Chestermere was honoured to welcome Conservative MP for Bow River Martin Shields as Guest Speaker at its club meeting on June 27th.
MP Shields addressed the issues surrounding Alberta’s economy in a clear and inspirational speech followed by a Q & A period.  Also in attendance was MLA Sharon Aheer representing the UCP Party for Chestermere/Rocky View, City Councillor and current Deputy Mayor Michelle Young and City of Chestermere Manager of Economic Development Catherine Proulx representing the City of Chestermere. With so many representatives in the room at the same time, we just couldn’t resist playing a little game of Fun Facts of Alberta, dividing all of the attendees into 3 groups: Municipal, Provincial and Federal. It was a fierce competition with lots of lively activity and while all 3 teams were outstanding, the Federal Team won the most points scored!  Thank you to all of our guests who attended and thank you to Camp Chestermere for hosting a fantastic Breakfast Buffet!

Rotary Chestermere will be suspending their Breakfast Meetings for the summer months while they focus on planning their 5th Annual Amazing Race Fundraiser Event scheduled for Sat. September 15th!  GET YOUR TEAM TOGETHER NOW!
Their Breakfast Meetings will resume on Wed. Sept 12th.   Their club motto is: “Come as you are – Give what you can.” For more information go to www.rotarychestermere.org
