Fred Wright is from Kenora Ontario and is responsible for District 5550 which includes Northwest Ontario, all of Manitoba and most of Saskatchewan.  He explained COVID hit Rotary a bit for membership but they’ve got a lot of good things happening in the District and they need to capitalize on that and make sure they tell everyone in the community about Rotary.  He noted the Flin Flon Club…..

“This is a strong Club one of the stronger ones in the District and they do a lot of really good work in the community and I think the big thing for Flin Flon like other Clubs is to do more visible work with our youth because if we do more visible work with our youth the parents of the youth will see what’s going on and like some of the Clubs and I’m sure it’s going to happen here the parents end up joining Rotary and having fun with us.”

 Rotary’s highest honor the Paul Harris Fellow Award for outstanding club and community service was presented to community member Dianne Russell.
