 Guest Speaker

Name Kira & Alan Introduced by Brian Muir

Kira and Alan are two Mount Allison students who are active in the local Rotaract Club and recently attended a RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) workshop at the Rotary Lodge in Moncton. Both found the experience useful, even rewarding, and were excited by youth of all ages - most in attendance were high school age - and learning to be comfortable going with their passions for particular causes and goals.

Alan is the outgoing President of the MtA Rotaract Club and reported that Allison from the Miramachi will be next year’s President, and that the Club will continue to have the goal of seeking new members.

Thanker Ove Samuelsen
