Congratulations to Camille W - Local Wellness on being the recipient of this year’s Rotary Business Integrity Award, presented April 1, 2026! 👏

Each year, the Rotary Club of Athabasca proudly presents this award to recognize a business that truly exemplifies Rotary’s 4-Way Test:

• Is it the TRUTH?
• Is it FAIR to all concerned?
• Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
• Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?

This award celebrates businesses that operate with high moral and ethical standards while making a meaningful impact in our community—and Local Wellness is a shining example of exactly that.

Thank you for your commitment to integrity, community, and excellence. Well deserved! 🌟

(From L to R: Francis Hachey - President, Wally Cummings - Membership Chair & Camille Wallach - Integrity Award Recipient)

A special thank you to the Colinton Senior Centre for their generous donation. These funds will go directly toward creating meaningful youth leadership opportunities for students, including:

• Rotary Youth Leadership: Intensive training programs, ranging from seminars to weeklong camps, designed to develop leadership skills and confidence in young people.
• Rotary Youth Program of Enrichment: A personal development camp that helps youth (typically ages 15–18) reach their full potential.
• Adventure Camps: Specialized local camps centered on themes such as technology, human rights, and environmental studies.

We couldn’t have done it without your support, and we’re excited to see the lasting impact this support will have on our youth!
