On March 1, 2004, our Club Historian Rotarian George Dalby published a book "History - The Rotary Club of Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada 1921-2004"

in recognition of over 80 years of Public Service. It is available from Club members and at the Public Library in Niagara Falls.

 

      For a period of 59 years, a small group of dedicated ladies met to pan and work at money making projects in aid of Rotary Objectives.  these ladies were most inventive in their methods of raising funds, some of which included holding coffee parties, Bridge Luncheons Valentine Dances, Raffles and Bake Sales.  Hundreds of dollars were raided by these ladies to help better the lives of the children under the care of our Club as we were an "Easter Seals" club and every member was assigned a physically challenged child to care for at our annual Christmas Parties and Club Picnics.  

      We recognize their contributions to our Club.
