Rotary - Volunteer of the Year

Posted by Pat Cathcart

At the 45th Annual Volunteer Recognition Dinner, our own, Beverly Barker, Treasurer of the Rotary Club of Sackville and Area, was honoured as Rotary Volunteer of the Year. Volunteers are the heart of the Community and Bev is one of the best. She can always be counted on, shows service above self, never lets us down, does it all in good cheer and with an immense smile. Congratulations Bev, an honour well deserved. We are so proud of you and very proud that you chose to be a Rotarian and how lucky we are that you chose our Club.

Meet Our Newest Silver Sponsor

Thank you Tara C. MacDonald Inc. for your support of our bicycle programs "First Ride" and "Recycle Your Cycles". Your generosity is very much appreciated and will contribute to the program's success again this year. Thank you again

First Ride Program - Launch

First Ride Program - Launch

Partners: The Rotary Club of Sackville Area, Sportwheels Sports Excellence, The Salvation Army & Junk Works Halifax.

The First Ride Program provides new bicycles to children in need throughout our community. Since 2014, together we’ve helped over 1,100 families. This program was parked when Covid hit. Beginning in 2026, we are refreshing it to focus exclusively on delivering safe, professionally assembled NEW bikes to children — ensuring every child receives the right fit, something reliable, and built to last. A bicycle represents more than transportation. For many children, it creates independence, confidence, and a stronger connection to friends, school, and community. We are prioritizing safety, dignity, and long-term impact — ensuring each child receives something dependable and truly their own.

How You Can Help:

Sportwheels will donate 15–20 New Bicycles to the program each year. To expand that impact, we invite the community to support this mission through financial contributions to The Rotary Club of Sackville and Area. Your donation will help fund additional new children’s Bicycles & Helmets. Donations can be made by E-transfer to: rotarybicycles@gmail.com

Together, we can ensure every child’s first ride is safe, memorable, and truly theirs.

Believe In Hope - Coffee House

Please join us! Mark your calendars now for an amazing experience! The students in our Interact Club are working hard to plan an amazing evening of relaxation, fun, laughter and music. This is an important fundraiser. Cash or E-transfer at the door. If you attended before we know you will want to return...please share this message and plan to bring a friend! Baked goods, Auction items and 50/50 tickets!!
