The Peterborough Rotary Club is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. As part of the celebrations, they are producing a special commemorative Centennial Book. The club is selling a limited number of ads in the book, just enough to cover the costs. If you’d like to support the club just get in touch with Bruce Gavel at bruce@brucegravel.ca.
