The annual Sooke Rotary Club Spring Auction and Fair will be held on April 30, 2016 at SEAPARC Leisure Complex in Sooke.

Our Rotary Club members have worked hard over the past three decades to improve people’s lives, both locally and internationally. Projects in Sooke have included the Skateboard Park, Rotary Pier and renovations to the Sooke Food Bank (with the Sooke Lions Club). In recent years we have maintained our focus on youth by helping to fund improvements to facilities at the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides camps and by purchasing much needed computer equipment for use by students at Sooke Elementary School. In addition, we continue to provide annual scholarships and bursaries to local university and college students. Some of our international projects have involved establishing a Canadian foundation to support a high school for girls in Malawi and purchasing emergency relief shelters for disaster victims in Somalia and the Philippines.

The Spring Fair and Auction is our principal fundraising event. It has grown into a full day of community activity, including an opportunity for local businesses and organizations to showcase their products and services. Local musicians and dancers provide entertainment. Approximately 2,000 people attend the event each year.

Thank you very much for your continued support and we look forward to seeing you on April 30th.

Yours truly,

Trevor Colley, President Rotary Club of Sooke
