Winni Derby Suspended for 2016
The Board of Directors of Laconia Rotary Club announced today that the 34th Annual Winni Derby, originally scheduled for May 13th to 15th, will be suspended for 2016. Event organizers received approval from NH Fish & Game to suspend the event for one year due to extenuating circumstances.
“We regret having to make this decision,” stated Kristen Welch, President of Laconia Rotary, “Laconia Rotary is aware there are many anglers and their families who participate in the tradition of the Winni Derby each year, and we apologize for any inconvenience. We are grateful for the support and enthusiasm we have received for this event, and appreciate all who have contributed to its past success.”
Laconia Rotary is seeking partner organizations for the 2017 Winni Derby. Please contact event organizers at 603-848-3474 or email winniderby@yahoo.com for more information.

The winning ticket for the 2014 Laconia Raffle Charity Raffle was drawn by a Laconia police officer on June 22, 2014 at our booth in the Weirs. The winner was Joseph Hayes of Belmont, NH.

Jon Nivus, chairman of the event for Laconia Rotary commented, “Thanks to all the people who purchased tickets for the raffle.

William Gray of Gilford, NH was the lucky winner of the 2013 Charity Raffle of the Laconia Rotary Club. Mr. Gray won a Hertitage Softtail Classic in the drawing done on June 16, 2013. Mr. Gray had a good weekend, since his birthday was on Saturday and Father's Day and winning the bike was on Sunday. After receiving the call about the drawing, Mr. Gray came to the Weirs to inspect his new motorcycle. He currently has a motorcycle, but this will be a nice replacement. Mr. Gray purchased his tickets at the officer of P. K. Shetty, M.D., about a month ago.
Pictured is John Moriarty, President of Laconia Rotary Club congratulating Mr. Gray on winning the motorcycle.
Thanks to all who purchased raffle tickets and good luck next year. Your purchases enable the Laconia Rotary Club to make significant contributions to the youth and elderly of Laconia and support the work of the Rotary International Foundation throughout the world, and in particular the eradication of polio.
