Orange Shirt Day opens the door to global conversation on all aspects of Indigenous Residential Schools. It is an opportunity to create meaningful discussion about the effects of Residential Schools and the legacy they have left behind. A discussion all Canadians can tune into and create bridges with each other for reconciliation. A day for survivors to be reaffirmed that they matter, and so do those that have been affected. Every Child Matters, even if they are an adult, from now on. www.orangeshirtday.org

Northumberland drive-thru Ribfest in The News ! https://www.northumberlandnews.com//10144054-rotary-club-/

Who wants some BBQ Ribs ? The Rotary Club of Cobourg welcomes you to the First-Ever Northumberland Drive-Thru Ribfest. https://drivethru.northumberlandribfest.ca/

Here is this week's message from our District 7070 Governor Beth Selby to all of our Rotary family, Here is a message from the District 7070 Membership Team: Co...ngratulations District 7070 Clubs on your ability to meet during this challenging time! A check-in with Clubs has shown that the majority of us are meeting in some virtual capacity. Great job! Now you need to check that none of your members are getting left behind. If you haven’t already, check to see who is attending your meetings and who is not. Follow up with those who are missing we suggest a phone call, have a chat. Find out why they are not attending (gently). Perhaps someone in the Club can help connect them to the meetings. Or perhaps they will be happy just to hear a voice from their Club. Continue to follow up with these members every 2 weeks or so and any others you do not see very often. If your Club is not meeting, please reach out to Virginia O’Reilly ([email protected]) and we’d be happy to help figure out a way for you to meet. Connecting is always important for Rotarians, but even more so at this time. Thank you. Stay well and stay safe! Virginia O'Reilly More from Beth: This week, the Toronto Eglinton Club’s speaker is the Hon. Bob Rae. Visit the club website for information and registration. The Toronto Skyline is holding a Virtual Trivia Contest on Friday June 5th. Here’s the link. https://rotary7070.org//toronto-skyline---friends-(virtua/ The Rotary Club of Aurora has @1000 'frogs' to offer (think duck race) free to a club looking for a fun fundraiser.

On this day, April 12th, 1955, international headlines read Victory over Polio. The vaccine, developed by Jonas Salk and his team at the University of Pittsburgh, was declared safe & effective after the largest medical field trial in history. 60 years later, the triumphs of this vaccine are still helping millions of people worldwide. Let's continue to fight for global polio eradication www.endpolio.org
