The Rotary Club of Welland held its 7th annual Curling Social on February 11, 2025. Hosted by the Welland Curling Club, we had 82 Rotarians, family, and friends attend, with a complement of 64 curlers on 16 teams.
One hundred and twenty golfers and several volunteers from both Clubs took part, including District 7090 Governor David Alexander and Past District Governor Scott Marcin. Unique to this event, all 18 holes had a contest and prize, along with two hole-in-one contests. After golf, everyone sat down for a Korean dinner at the Pelham Hills Golf Club, participated in a 50/50 draw and took a chance bidding on silent auction items.
