Last night Lynne, Brenda and I dropped off
Caro at the airport for her long flight home. She left at midnight and will
arrive in Argentina about 4pm today. Although it was a teary goodbye, I am
confident that we will be seeing Caro again in the near future. She said again
last night that she had an amazing year--the best of her life- and she is very
grateful for all that the club did for her.
As her counsellor, I would like to
sincerely thank her host families; Morgan and Debbie; Ralph and Brenda, Janice
and Brenda for welcoming Caro into their homes. A huge thank you as well to
all the club members who kept Caro extremely busy this past year with a variety
of activities. Wendy These are the final photos of her trip: Best Wishes Caro!

It was a late fall road clean up this year, as once again members of the Kawartha Rotary Club donned their grubby clothes and went out along River Road to pick up the garbage left behind in the last six months. You can see that the truck is stuffed with found items. Photos are here. Thanks everyone for participating, and what would a rotary work event be without some sustenance afterwards!

Fellow
Rotarians.
Thank you
for providing me the opportunity to be able to serve as our Club President for
the coming year. It is truly an honour,
and I take the responsibility seriously. Thank you
for providing me the chance to travel to PETS and also to our International
Convention to represent our Club as President Elect. Both Events were a step for me to move
towards being a real Rotarian. I don't
know if I even know what that is, a Real Rotarian, but my thoughts on that
subject are kind of like this.

Farewell
address by President Ash Kaushik
It is almost
a year since I stood in front of you and gave my inaugural speech and laid out
the goals which I hoped to accomplish in my year as president. My goals started
with the letter “F” . It will be appropriate to continue the usage of this word
“F” in expressing the time had as President, simply “Fantastic”.
Fun and
Fellowship was my goal #1.
We held many
social events this past year, and gagging the responses from the members who attended
these events, it is fair to say that we all had fun.

Eastern Ontario and western Quebec. It comprised 37 community Rotary clubs from Havelock to Hearst. One of those was the Rotary Club of Peterborough (chartered in 1921) and it was the home club of John Cockburn who was the District Governor of 1989/90.
