Did you attend our Christmas Storytime event last Did you attend our Christmas Storytime event last Saturday?

If you did then we don't need to tell you how much fun it was. We don't need to remind you about the magic filled day that was. Or remind you about all the awesome readers, the magic show or the fact that Santa stopped by to visit. 

In the event that you missed it swipe through some of the photos and we hope to see you next year!

Another year of the Rotary Central Christmas Carol Another year of the Rotary Central Christmas Carol Canal Cruise in the books. We saw our largest attendance yet. Our caroling vessel was decorated under guidance of ARPIC Will and made the night extra special.  The tour included the canal homes along the West Bay Peninsula and North Sound. We sang, we danced and spread all the Christmas cheer along the canals. The Rotarians, Rotaractors and guests had so much fun they are already talking about next year!
