Well Done Rotary The Jazz/Blues evening was a wonderful event. The room seemed full, the jazz/blues were exceptional and the auction items went over well. Even better, preliminary results are that $14,000+ was raised for the Sea to Sky Hospice. Well done!! Thanks go to many who organized and carried out the event but special thanks go to President Ken who came up with the idea, lived and breathed the project and led the team to make it happen. Thanks Ken. We appreciate what you did and have a well deserved vacation!
