Title: Rotary Club of Palgrave’s Weekly Rotary Minute

---------------------------------------------------


By Ian Kittle
We all choose to give back for different reasons.
And the avenues we choose to do so by are very personal decisions.
I spent many years of my life volunteering from coaching t-ball, to being a Beaver/Scout leader, joining Neighbourhood watch — to name a few.
When I was lucky enough to retire, I wanted to continue giving back to the community that I lived in. When my wife and I settled in Palgrave, I sought out the means to do just that.
I had my “check list” that I needed whatever service club I joined to meet . . . it went something like this:
1. I wanted to continue volunteering;
2. I wanted to volunteer in a different way than I had before;
3. We wanted to meet a new circle of friends;
4. I wanted to assume new responsibilities;
5. I wanted to feel good every time I came to a meeting.
With all the “checks” on my list taken care of, I know that — by my actions of joining Rotary and being an active, engaged Rotarian — I am making our community a friendlier and “gooder” place!
