To start today's program Sue and Nelia from Cambridge Memorial Hospital Foundation presented the club with our portion of the proceeds from Best Bites 2016. Although the giant cheque was unsigned, it had the figure $20,187 on it.
For the main program, Sandy introduced Leslee Urquhart for her Who am I presentation.
Leslee was born in Ottawa and has two sisters (both teachers, as Leslee was for most of here career) and one brother, a lawyer. They all have great genes. Although Leslee's mom passed away recently, her dad is still alive at 90 and using the eliptical machine every day. Leslee clearly loves her family a lot and expressed her love for her mom several times through her presentation.
When she was very young the family moved to Campbellford and then to Waterloo Region, which she thinks is a great place to live (we know). Here are a few of the high points that I managed to get onto paper.
- Educated at U of T and Niagara College.
- One daughter, Roslyn, is 16 and attends Galt Collegiate French Immersion.
- Leslee's boyfried is Paul. They have been together for 3 years and get along with each others kids.
- Her dog Teddie is black and cute.
- Leslee taught science for 27 years in GTA and Waterloo Region schools. In Toronto she lived on Toronto Island which I think would be amazing!
- Retired from teaching two years ago and opened a business called A Perfect Day, organizing weddings at any of three venues. You can pick France, a barn in Ayr, or downtown Galt. Some members in attendance expressed a preference for France.
President Paul said the Rotary Meeting of April 20th will be off site at KidsAbility in Waterloo.
