Williams Lake Rotary Club had a very inspirational speech by District Governor Lorne Calder out of Prince George.  Lorne was introduced by visiting Rotarian from Quesnel, Assistant Governor Sandra Lewis. 
 
Not just because DG Lorne Calder is an accountant, by his speech was by the numbers and it was great how he related the numbers to Rotary. Our current President David Dickson liked it so much he wants it on Facebook and in the local newspaper. :-)

Dave Dickson with the Rotary Club of Williams Lake facilitated the operations of Operation Red Nose for the 11th year. Operation Red Nose was out in our community for 9 nights giving people safe rides home. The donations this year were the highest received and in return $15,500 was given to the four Williams Lake community Youth programs. Blue Finns Swim Club, Cariboo-Chilcotin Gymnastics, Camp Likely, and the Cariboo-Chilcotin Fiddlers.
Thank you to these four youth groups who donated their time towards giving safe rides home. There were many other Williams Lake folks who volunteered their time as well to this worthy cause. Thank you Everyone!
