The Rotary Club of Campbell River is preparing to celebrate its 80th anniversary.
The organization said in a social media post that March will mark 80 years since its first meeting in Campbell River.
According to the club, it was formed in 1946 with 21 members committed to having a positive impact in the community.
“The club’s first project was to tear down and rebuild the Scout Hall in Willow Point. This was the beginning of many,” the post said.
The club said that since 1946 it has contributed more than $3 million and tens of thousands of volunteer hours to community projects, youth and seniors.
The local Rotary Club currently has more than 80 members.
More to come…
