Welcome
to our Web Site
Our club was chartered in 1994, one of the 64 clubs in
District 7040, which encompasses eastern Ontario, western Quebec and
northern New York. Most of our club meetings feature an invited
guest speaker and are intended to be fun and educational. Our
primary purpose however is to be a fellowship dedicated to community
service and some of our meetings therefore encompass event planning and
discussion.
