In 2012, the Rotary Club of Bathurst had their luncheon compliments of the Veteran’s Villa.  What a wonderful lunch followed by a tour of the unit for those wishing to visit.  Benefits would be to promote volunteers to visit the Veterans on a regular basis and to find out how the Rotary can become involved in assisting the Robert L. Knowles Veteran’s Villa.  Citizens are encouraged to take the time to visit these Veterans who have given so much of themselves for our freedom.

Front left is Orphir Legresley who is a veteran from WWII from Grand Anse.  Front right is Sinclair Morrison from Salmon Beach, also a veteran from WWII.

Back from left to right is:  Audrey Ronalds, Gordon Pitre, Cletus Doucet, and Carl Kenny – all Rotarians dedicated to Community Service.

It’s hard to believe that the “New Rotary Van 2005” is now almost eight (8) years old!  Shown here are photos of the “new van”, in October 2005.  Bathurst citizens with disabilities have enjoyed the benefits of using the Rotary Venture Van over the years.  Rotary continues to save for a “new van”, and wishes to thank it’s many contributors to the Rotary Fundraising Functions which permit us to provide this valuable community service.  Shown in the photos are:  Clarence Bastarache (Venture Van Board Member), Frederic Lefrancois (past Rotary President), Keith Assaff (Rotarian and Venture Van Board Member), Marcel Lavigne (Venture Van Driver).

Saturday, November 17, 2012 will go down as a memorable evening for Elvis fans in Bathurst and surrounding areas.  Not only were Elvis fans entertained by Thane Dunn and the Cadillac Kings, but the evening’s proceeds will go towards the purchase of a new Rotary Venture Van serving those in need of transportation, in and around the Bathurst region.  A huge thank-you to the performers, to local businesses that contributed in any capacity to the event, to Rotarians who worked hard at preparing for the evening and working behind the scenes, and to Elvis fans young and old who attended.
