Kindred at RCCC - August 19, 2026

 

At our August 19 breakfast meeting, we welcomed Melanie Grylls (left in photo), Chief Executive Officer of Kindred, for an inspiring look into their vital community work. For over 65 years, Kindred has walked alongside Calgary families, offering essential parenting support and rapid-access mental health counseling to help people navigate life's toughest transitions.

Melanie emphasized that without early, connected support, everyday challenges can quickly become crises for vulnerable families. Her message about the power of low-barrier care perfectly aligns with our club's ongoing dedication to local community service initiatives.

RCCC Picnic at Sandy Beach (July 25, 2026)

 

On July 25, our Rotary Club of Calgary Centennial members gathered for a summer picnic at Sandy Beach. While we had a smaller turnout, the intimate setting paved the way for great, in-depth conversations! We spent a nice, relaxing afternoon unwinding in the sunshine, enjoying classic hot dogs, and sharing plenty of snacks.

Thank you to everyone who came out to connect and share in the fellowship—we look forward to seeing you at our next event!

 

RCCC Stampede Pancake Breakfast: Kicking Off a New Year at the Ranchmen's!

July 8, 2026

A massive thank you to all the members and guests who turned out for our RCCC Stampede Pancake Breakfast at the Ranchmen's Club! It was a fantastic morning of fellowship, great food, and true Stampede spirit. We were especially thrilled to welcome back Chris, a past RCCC member, who joined us looking bright and healthy!

This event was extra special as it marked our first official meeting of the new fiscal year. We proudly welcomed our new Club President, Tim Schaufele, who took the floor to share his inspiring vision for the months ahead. Under Tim's leadership, our club plans to actively pursue projects that create a truly meaningful impact in our community and beyond.

We also introduced a heartfelt transition during the meeting. In place of the beloved "Rotary Moments" traditionally shared by the late Dave Brinsmead, Laura has graciously stepped in to share key messages and inspiring stories from Rotary International. We were delighted to hear Laura share the very first story with us during the breakfast, carrying on a wonderful tradition of Rotary inspiration.

Thank you to everyone who made this kickoff event a resounding success. Yahoo!
