Welcome

I am honoured to have been chosen to be the 2010 - 2011 President of the Rotary Club of Kerikeri. I look forward to working with the Rotarians in our club and throughout our Rotary District 9910 this year. I also look forward to working with members of our community to further the work and goals of our organisation, both within our community and through our international projects.

Rotary Club of Kerikeri President - John Toms

The Rotary Club of Kerikeri is an active club of men and women devoted to the principles of Rotary. We meet every Monday at the RSA Kerikeri Club in Cobham Road, Kerikeri at 5.40pm.

Our club is involved in a number of international and community projects. We are also involved in community activities, both by assisting groups and individuals and by undertaking community projects.

We support Rotary in international projects such as the campaign to eradicate the world of polio, a major long term Rotary project that is on the brink of making history by achieving this objective.

In our wider region we support a wide range of activities and organisations. We support projects such as schools and hospitals in places like Vanuatu. We strongly support the Rotary Shelter Box project, a major Rotary initiative to provide shelter for people in areas of natural disasters.

The Kerikeri Rotary New World Garden Safari is now an established event in the area and is our major fund raising activity. Our new venture, The Northern Crossing Multisport event was held for the first time in 2010 and promises to be a significant annual event for the region. These events are supported by our major sponsors, Kerikeri New World and Top Energy.

In our club we enjoy great friendship and fellowship and a range of social activities. In Rotary we aim to make a difference in the community and in the world.

If you would like to find out more about Rotary and our club please contact me.
