Terry Vollum For PostMedia It all began ten years ago with a simple thought. “We wanted to do something to thank our wonderful customers,” explained Julie Yoo, owner/operator of the Pro One Stop in Stirling, “and the idea of inviting everyone to a summer barbecue at our place of business seemed like the right idea.”

Terry Vollum For PostMedia Although we are currently enjoying mostly wonderful, summer weather, Stirling Rotarians are suggesting that you might take a little time to do some spring-cleaning. And so as you tidy up the garage, the basement, a spare room or even a storage shed, you might consider this relatively effortless task as an opportunity to help a worthy cause.

The Indigenous Peolpe's Partnership Cluster (IPPC) work with Indigenous communities want and what are their priorities, rather than us assuming we know what they need. The IPPC believe it is important to partner with key people
in the different communities to ensure that they are partnering with them on priorities they have identified as meaningful for their specific needs.

In the Fall of 2013, the Principal of the new Stirling Public School talked with Stirling Rotarians regarding the possibility of assisting in the building of an Outdoor Classroom at the school. The school had plans that had been prepared but were looking for outside assistance in order to make their dream come true.

The Rotary Club of Stirling was approached by the the Community Cupboard/Food bank several years ago, to assist them with their Christmas baskets. At the time is was understood that year there were 75 families locally needing help. We were shocked that our little village had so many families needing help so we offered to put together an online auction to raise the funds. Rotarian Terry Vollum has been a huge help gathering items and more recently Beckie Sarles-Davis has also joined the team. The first year we may have only had 25 items and it has grown to almost 100 this year. All the items are donated by generous local business owners and Rotarians.

In the year 2002, the Rotary Club of Stirling was searching for its next worthwhile community project. Following their weekly meeting, the members of the club walked over to the old Stirling Railway Station which sat neglected in an isolated spot, midway between Highway 14 and the Campbellford Road. It was built in 1879 and had become a boarded up, derelict building on a collapsing foundation.
