2017-18 Rotary International President, Ian Riseley, challenged every Rotarian throughout the world to plant one tree. District 7080 met the challenge by planting over 5,000 trees. A remarkable feat. Congratulations to all of the clubs who participated and made our tree planting weekend a huge success. Here is a short video prepared by AJ Rana, District Public Relations Director.

The Oakville Rotaractors, along with members of the Oakville Clubs (including the new Passport Club) staffed a table at Oakville Place mall to inform the public about the fight to end polio.
In recognition of World Polio Day the four Oakville Rotary clubs organized a flag raising of the Rotary at Town Hall yesterday.
The Mayor Rob Burton and Regional Town Councillor Jeff Knoll (who is a Rotarian) and well as members from the 4 clubs were in attendance.
The project started about 1977 and has continued without interruption. The goal is to recycle books to keep them out of the landfill while also reselling the donated books to new readers at an inexpensive price. The Club raises about $4,000 from this project which ran from October 17-20 at the local Town Centre Mall. It also provides a means of publicizing the work of the local Rotary Club and invites people to join us.
Whether you’re hosting a fundraiser, planning a 5 km run, or placing ads around town, there are countless ways your club can be a part of World Polio Day. Join us on 24 October and spread the word about polio eradication in your community. Go to endpolio.org/worldpolioday to get started. And whatever you have planned, tell us!
