The Club has established four pollinator gardens at the following locations: Broadview Ave. P.S. (2023); Regina St. Alternative School (2022); the Rotary Home (2022); and Rotel (2023). Club members maintain the gardens at Rotel and the Rotary Home and work with the students at Broadview and Regina during the school year and then assume the garden maintenance at the schools throughout the summer months.
Thanks to many Ottawa Area clubs for their donations to rebuild the pergola at Rotel.
