The Sussex Area Community Foundation Inc. made a presentation to Sussex Rotary on Monday, December 2, 2024. The Foundation is a public charity run by 14 local volunteers. The Foundation invests donations from community members and uses investment returns to address community needs through grants and scholarships.
The Sussex Rotary Club is a diverse collection of civic-minded and professional community leaders who meet each week for fellowship, professional enrichment, and the opportunity for service. The Sussex Rotary Club provides an opportunity for business development networking with a variety of community business leaders and professionals. Rotarians help each other, and collectively help others.
Olde Tyme Christmas is happening in Downtown Sussex on December 5, 2024 from 5 - 9 pm. Zack Ingalls and Hannah Freeze will be partnering with the Rotary Club of Sussex in raising funds for the repair of band instruments for Sussex Regional High School.
The Rotary Club of Sussex is thrilled to announce a donation of $5500 to support four incredible organizations: Shop with a Cop, Multicultural Association of Sussex, The Salvation Army, and the Pregnancy & New Parent Centre. Together, we are making a difference in our community through the Coats for Kids Program!
With additional support from the Tim Horton’s Smile Cookie Campaign November 12-18th, we are proud to support these organizations that work tirelessly to provide warmth and comfort to children in need. Coats for Kids Program ensures that every child is cozy and warm in this winter weather.
Thank you to Tim Horton’s Sussex for sharing proceeds from your Smile Cookie Campaign with us. We also extend a heartfelt appreciation to Shop with a Cop, Multicultural Association of Sussex, The Salvation Army, and the Pregnancy & New Parent Centre for their incredible work and partnership.
Together, we are making a positive impact on the lives of children, spreading warmth, and fostering a brighter future. If you would like to contribute, please feel free to donate at sussexrotary.org. Join us in celebrating this milestone as we continue to support those in our community!
The Rotary Club of Sussex was shocked and saddened to hear of the sudden passing of one of our members, Barry Reicker, on June 17th, 2023 (pictured at left, with Past President and Barry's Membership Sponsor, Angie Cummings)
Barry was a recent addition to our Rotary Membership; a stepson of long-standing and involved Rotarian Bob Black. We are honoured that Barry was interred wearing his Rotary Membership Pin.
Like most things, Barry jumped into our Rotary Club with both feet and immediately got involved in our BrewFest Fundraiser. He and his lovely partner Jenn were our Grill Masters for the fundraising event and fostered many friendships that day.
Though his membership was short, Barry left a lasting impact on our Club and his legacy will continue. A donation to The Rotary International Foundation has been made in his memory.
Barry is survived by his young son, Frankie. A Go Fund Me Page has been created to help support Frankie's future and education.
Our thoughts and condolences are with Barry’s many close friends and family at this time.
Sussex Rotary was proud to induct its newest members during a Rotary meeting now hosted at All Seasons Inn!
The new Rotarian Barry Reicker, Alannah Pearson, and Rotary Club President Sheri Shannon are pictured here, left to right.
Sheri presided over the induction and shared a few notes about Rotary for everyone.
"The Rotary Club of Sussex is known for great work in community support and has been involved in for many years among many other local and international projects. We welcome your strong arms and heart for service... When you shake the hand of one Rotarian (or bump elbows), you are within reach of 1.2 million more."
