Grants Seminar, Sat Oct 19, VIA WEBINAR
 
IF YOU PREVIOUSLY REGISTERED THROUGH CLUBRUNNER, YOU MUST REGISTER WITH ZOOM as noted below
 
2019/20 Grants Seminar – October 19
 
This year the Grant Seminar will be offered as a WEBINAR ONLY on October 19. Currently, 35 people are registered and eligible for grant funds.
 
Each club is required by The Rotary Foundation to have at least one member attend in order to receive grants.
 
We have decided to go this route in order to make it easier for people to attend which will in turn increase attendance.
Grants are a huge tool in Rotary toolbox for doing good so understanding what is available and how to access it is vital.

Don't get kicked in the throat this election! Wed Oct 16, Calgary Millennium

Politics or pro-wrestling?

Listen to the always delightful, Stephen Carter, as he shares his thoughts on the upcoming election.

Please come out and join us for the first of our 2019-2020 Speaker's Series.

Stephen is an innovator, pushing the bounds of what is possible.

He is best known as one of Canada’s leading political strategists, having played a leadership role in the meteoric rise of Calgary’s now world-famous Mayor Naheed Nenshi, and infamous former Alberta Premier Alison Redford.

Join us for an entertaining and thought-provoking lunch! Our Speaker's Series kicks off for the Fall with another exciting presentation! We are pleased to welcome Stephen Carter who will share some thoughts about the upcoming Federal election and what it might mean for Alberta.
