Rotary Co-President Barb Lustgarten Evoy and Rotary member Hillary Rooyakkers volunteered to decorate the iconic (Christmas themed) smile cookies, helping raise funds that directly support mentorship programs for local youth.

The two spent the morning adding cheerful faces to hundreds of cookies, each one contributing to a cause that strengthens connections and opportunities for young people in the community. Tim Hortons’ Smile Cookie campaign continues to be a beloved local tradition, bringing organizations and volunteers together to make a meaningful difference—one cookie at a time.
