Return to Rotary Club of Trail
25-October-2003 Stripping the Gardens Community
Service
This Rotary Club of Trail Community
Service event was organized as a result of a Teck Cominco Metals Ltd. fund raising challenge between the Research
and Technical Services groups in Trail. The fundraiser was an annual, "Mining For Miracles" campaign
to raise funds for the BC Children's Hospital. The winners were the kids and the losers, Technical Services, were
to provide 10 volunteers for a Rotary Club of Trail, Community Service function. In total, these two groups raised
$7,000. Today, these active, willing and enthusiastic participants are helping Rotary support important work of
the Communities in Bloom group by stripping the gardens in downtown Trail. Sincere thanks to all who helped with
this community event: Mike Jensen, Sue Jensen, Robyn Jensen, Adam Jensen, Bill Van Beek, Carol Vanelli, Henry Salomon-De-Friedberg,
