 On Monday, November 02, 2009 a young man with a mission called Ryan de Jongh took the floor at the Rotary Club Willemstad meeting. Most of us had heard of Ryan as an incredible kayaker, known for circumventing Curaçao in 2007 in 33 hours. That challenge was but one in a long, and growing, list of trials that Ryan has taken on.
But all previous challenges pale in comparison to his next feat titled the "Clear Water Challenge". Driven by a passion for nature, Ryan explained to all in attendance that he intends to travel by kayak from Saint Martin all the way to Curaçao! Along the way he will make stops along the many islands that line the eastern part of the Caribbean basin. |

The 2009 edition of the annual RotaRally fundraiser was the seventh success in a row for Rotary Club Willemstad. Preliminary calculation indicate that this year's take (More than Naf 50K!) surpassed the results of all previous RotaRally events. The financial success was by no means possible without the contributions of our sponsors, which are listed below by the level (gold, silver or bronze) of their donations. With their contribution these sponsors make a clear statement about their commitment to contribute to the education of Curaçao youngsters |

 As we look back at Rotarally 2009, a well received fundraising event to collect funds for post school education for the youth in Wishi/Marchena, we are thankful.
Thankful to all the participants to the rally who contributed to our cause. Thankful to the sponsors who through their generosity made it possible for us to organize the event. UPDATE: More pictures, made by fellow Rotarian Shirley Lo-An-Joe (including some never before seen behind the scenes photos) and a special word of thanks to all sponsors can be found here. You need to see these pictures! And last, but certainly not least, we are grateful for the help we got from Rotaract members and the Rotarians of our Club. The summarized results of Rotarally 2009 are presented below. |
