We are so pleased to honour the contributions of Nick and Glayde Rizzo to our community by making them Paul Harris Fellows. Nick was a Rotarian in the Brantford Rotary Club (Friday) for over 30 years. He served on their board, many committees and helped to establish the YOuth Exchange program. An avid runner, Nick and some of his running friends got together one year and held the 'Boston to Brantford' run as a fund raiser. That little has now grown into the Brantford Classic, which raises close to $100,000 every year to help our community.
