Last year our Club launched its first Art and Wine Auction hosted at Sans Souci in downtown Belleville. We successfully raised almost four thousand dollars for local charitable organizations. This year our 2nd annual event is scheduled for October 18, 2019 and will once again be hosted at Sans Souci. This event promises to be better than ever with the addition of not only wine and art, but fine handcrafts. Tickets are $20 and include a dessert bar with sensational treats by Chef Sheridan. So grab a few friends and join us for this fun event. Tickets maybe purchased on line or from your friendly Quinte Sunrise Rotary member.

A big shout-out to our everyone who came out and supported our fundraiser on Saturday night. We sold-out and packed the Dugout Grill with 130 of our friends and fellow Rotarians.
We had a great evening of fellowship, food, and fun. All funds raised from the evening will be re-invested back into our local community, assisting those who need need it most. A highlight of the evening was our presentation to Fletch and Quinte Sailability - our donation will help bring their fundraising goals into reality. We also got to wish our PR Director Toni a happy birthday.
Thanks to our volunteers and our sponsors who made the evening such a success!
Cheers!

Instead of our breakfast meeting on Thursday, February 20th, we held a fellowship evening with Club members, partners and friends at Signal Brewery. Owner Richard Courneyea provided a tour of the facility as well as sharing the colourful history of Corbyville, his inspirational vision for the redevelopment of the community. Club members and also sampled the Brewery's many excellent ales and lagers and enjoyed the fine dining the Brewery offers.
Past-President Geoff Cudmore was joined by Club members and Operation Rednose volunteers, Janet Mathany and Antonina Durham to accept a cheque for $7,750.00 from Operation Rednose. This donation more than doubles the funds raised at our recent Curl for Kids bonspiel that was in support of Camp Trillium, Quinte SailAbility, and our Bayside Secondary Scholarship. We look forward to working with Camp Trillium to come up with this year's project.The annual Curl for Kids bonspiel was held at the Quinte Curling Club on Saturday, February 1st. 12 Teams participated to raise funds for CAmp Trillium, Quinte SailAbility and our Bayside Secondary Scholarship.Last year our Club launched its first Art and Wine Auction hosted at Sans Souci in downtown Belleville.

On Saturday, Feb 2, QSR once again hosted our annual ‘Curl for Kids’ bonspeil at the Quinte Curling Club.
A total of 10 teams raised a whopping $5200 which will be directed to local youth initiatives, including Camp Trillium. We were excited to welcome back Charlie Benson from the camp, who stopped by to accept a cheque for $10,000 - the amount our club raised during the recent Operation Red Nose season. In return, President Brigitte was honoured to receive a plaque from Charlie, thanking our club for all of our help over the years.
In addition to the Quinte Curling Club, QSR would like to thank the PR students from Loyalist College for their hard work leading up to - and during - our event. In addition, we’d like to thank our sponsors Maple Dale Cheese Inc and Sprague Foods for their generous (and absolutely delicious) donations to help feed our curlers.
Finally, a big shout-out to our team of QSR volunteers (and family) who helped ensure our event was a success.
