Welcome to Rotary

After high school further adventures followed as Brad spent seven months backpacking through Europe on a gap year before attending Algonquin College in Ottawa and earning a diploma in photography.

Karisma Vyas is a 5th-year Biosystems Engineering student at the University of Manitoba, as well as the Vice President of Finance for UMEarth. She will present a slideshow about their upcoming Honduras Engineering Water System project. This initiative can potentially create significant positive change, and they believe our involvement could greatly enhance its impact.
 
The project focuses on addressing critical water infrastructure challenges in underserved communities in Honduras by providing sustainable and clean water solutions. It aligns with our university's values of social responsibility and global outreach, and we are confident it presents a meaningful opportunity for collaboration. 
 

Opportunity of a Lifetime


Are you interested in learning a new language or meeting new people? Rotary Youth Exchange is the opportunity of a lifetime for the more than 8,000 students who participate each year. By sharing your own culture and embracing a new one, you help foster global understanding—and learn a great deal about yourself and your home country in the process.

Sioux Lookout had a Community Service sign just before the Pelican Lake bridge for several years. During construction, the community lost the sign. 
 
In 2023, the Sioux Lookout Rotary Club initiated a project to restore the sign. The municipality offered the club an unused signpost across from Farlinger Park (Town Beach).
 
In July 2024, everything came together, and members of the Rotary Club, including Alanna, Lorenzo, Bill, Lew, Dick and Andreas, installed the new Community Sign.
 
The New Community Club Sign is slightly different from the usual Community Service Signs as it includes 16 clubs that contribute to making Sioux Lookout a better community.
 

 

Volunteerism is alive and well in Sioux Lookout, we thank those who sent in nominations, but we also we are grateful for the hundreds of volunteers in this community. Without their dedication so many of our favourite events would not continue to happen.
 
 
 
On July 3, we welcomed 11 youths from around the world to Sioux Lookout for the 2024 District 5550 International Youth Camp.
The group will go on their 7-day wilderness canoe trip starting on Sunday. Enjoy.

Salvation Army Sioux Lookout's services are valuable and necessary in our community. When we think of all the people the Salvation Army Sioux Lookout has helped already and the vast number of people still in need, we feel deeply grateful for Salvation Army Sioux Lookout's vision and strongly compelled to help support the good cause.
We hope the $2,500 donation will assist in continuing your services.
The funds are coming from the Rotary Radio Bingo.

The Sioux Lookout Bombers Jr.A team held their second annual Hockey Fights Cancer game at the Hangar on Saturday night. The real winner was local Cancer care as the Bombers and the Sioux Rotary Club of Sioux Lookout teamed up to donate $5000 to the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre Foundation. 369 fans came out to support the team and this very worthy cause.

On November 30 the Sioux Lookout Bombers, in cooperation with the Rotary Club of Sioux Lookout, hosted their first annual Mental Health Awareness night, an initiative which was spearheaded by several Bombers players, including #26 Aiden Parker.
The Bombers shared that, “Between the auction of our special game worn jerseys, sale of wristbands, the 50/50 draw (conducted by the Rotary Club) and other donations, you raised $2840 in support of mental health, $1500 of which (is) going directly to local mental health programs, and the remainder to the national Movember campaign.”
On Jan. 7, during the first period intermission of the Bombers’ game against the visiting Fort Frances Lakers, representatives from the Bombers and Rotary Club of Sioux Lookout presented a cheque for $1500 to members of the Sioux Lookout Meno Ya Win Health Centre Foundation and (SLMHC) Mental Health and Addictions Program.
