Rotary Moment
Ron Suzuki told us about how pink shirt day started. The first Anti-Bullying Day started on Canada's East Coast in 2007 when David Shepherd and Travis Price bought 50 pink shirts and distributed them at home in Berwick, Nova Scotia. The motivation for this special day came after grade nine student Chuck McNeill wore a pink shirt on the first day of school.
Guest Speakers
