Fellowship, food, fun, footwork and fundraising - who could ask for more!
On Valentines Day of the 2026 Family Day long-weekend, the RCNS organized and hosted our first-ever Music-Bingo, Dinner-Dance fundraiser at the Simcoe Legion.
With almost 100 Rotarians and guests in attendance, the RCNS filled the house and had a great time. As organized by our W&M leader Cathy Harrop, supported by music-bingo entrprenuer Hal Whitcomb (DJ Hal) & wife Debbie and catered by Bobbi Howe and her team, we all sang and danced ourselves into the night. Through the generosity of so many of our Club members, a huge array of donated prizes were available to win as a result of the bingo, even-steven, door and penny-table games and draws.
After it was all over, it was estimated that we had raised over $3500 to support our different Rotary support programs. So much work went into pulling off this very popular fundraiser. Helping Cathy to put it all together were Sunrisers Bettyann Carty, Sue Finney, Michelle Langedyk, Tina Millea, Linda Muir, Sarah Muntz-Flowerday and Louise Schebesch,

As leader of the initiative, Cathy was thrilled with the results, noting that so many people encouraged a repeat event that she was already thinking of ways to do it better - talk about ‘Service above Self’
